Symptoms: Pineapple cravings, at night i'm a bottomless pit, usually always hot, fatigue, right eye keeps twitching, occasional braxton hicks, still feeling her move usually early in the AM or late in the PM or after eating/drinking something she likes/dislikes can't tell which yet, heartburn, horrible leg cramps and major nesting instincts only getting stronger I am dying to buy baby items, i.e. furniture, decor, etc.
I go on the hospital tour soon and need to get the 3d or 4d ultrasound scheduled but have to wait to see when Cory is going to be back in town.
Claire is about the size of a rutabaga this week.
Your baby rivals the average rutabaga in weight -- about 1 1/2 pounds. (Length: 13 1/2 inches, head to heel.)
Week 25
* The structures of the spine begin to form -- joints, ligaments and rings. These will protect the all important spinal cord which serves as the information transmitter for your child's body.
* Blood vessels of the lungs develop.
* Your baby's nostrils begin to open. There is a study out of Belfast that suggests babies at this stage have the capability of scent preferences!
* The nerves around the mouth and lip area are showing more sensitivity now. When baby is rooting for food later on, these will be valuable!
* Her swallowing reflexes are developing.
* Dexterity is improving. Your baby can make a fist and would clasp objects placed in palm.
* Your child has now obtained an approximate length of 13.6 inches (34.6cm) and weighs 1.46 pound (660gm).
