http://www.welcomebabyhome.com/newsletter_weeks/fetus_calendar_week27.htm

1. Waldette was screaming 3 nights ago from cramps in her one leg. (I was expecting it to happen, So I was prepared )

I am prepaired

I am

 

Any Anycase:   I got up, gave her a good foot and leg massage and stretch and all well.

Riaan saving the night. back to zzzzzzzzzz zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Some stuff to do to fix it for cramps………. …..a good exercise before going to bed is the calf stretch.
Or, Magnesium /Calcium  .

 2. En die Boy, wat gebeur daar??????????

At this age the Boy is able to distinguish between light and dark. Research demonstrates how babies in the womb turn away from the source to the other side when a bright light is shone on their mother’s stomach.

I asked little one if this is true and he said……….

Shine that in my face again and I will moer you!!! ka-pieche

I will hit you and then slap you. What is wrong with  you.

I will hit you and then slap you. What is wrong with you.

So wat gebeur daar binne.
1. Baby is getting a layer of fat.
2. On average babies are 750g by nou and our boy is close to 900g. BIG!!!!!! boy!!!
3. Your baby’s hearing is completely formed. Praat ma praat!!!

 

Fish is good:
Eating fish is healthy and especially good during pregnancy. Women who consume a variety of fish end up having full term babies and babies with higher birth weights. This is important because the longer baby remains in the womb, the stronger and healthier it will be during delivery. Omega-3 fatty acids found in fish is responsible for preventing premature births; it triggers a hormone which helps prevent pregnancy induced hypertension and preeclampsia as well. Fish is the right choice of protein because it is safe, low in fat and high in Vitamin B, iron, zinc, selenium and copper. Eating most varieties on a frequent basis should be no problem.

And then, my Boy:

Baba haal net asem as hy slaap. Stop storing !!!

Baby sleeping

Baby is improving his breathing skills – inhaling and exhaling amniotic fluid and working out its breathing techniques. These breathing exercises are only carried out when baby is sleeping and not during its awake moments. Studies show that the only time fetus breathes in and out is during REM sleep.

22 weeks

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Our boy now weighs about 350g (the camera above weighs 360g) and is over 19cm long . Baby continues to grow, eyelids and eyebrows are developed, and nails are also visible. The amniotic fluid is replenished on a daily basis; in fact about a third of the fluid is exchanged every hour. Our baby swallows the fluid and some of this fluid is absorbed back into your body via the umbilical cord and placenta. The rest is simply urinated back into the amniotic fluid. Baby uses its ‘bathwater’ as its drinking water. While some of its nutrients are provided by the amniotic fluid, bulk of the nutrients comes from the placenta.

OOOOOOOOO—–Kay………………

Drinking bath water. Dit verduidelik hoekom ek die bad gedink het toe ek klein was.

20.5 weeks

This is just WOW.

Wow Wow Wow for God giving us this gift!!!!!

Baby is lying with his head just under my bellybutton with his back to my stomach. (See page photo’s 20.5 weeks http://www.easylink.co.za/baba/wp-content/uploads/2012/02/20.5-week-scan.jpg).

No wonder I don’t feel the full force of his little kicks and jerks! Dr Lizette says the position of my placenta also hinders me from feeling his jabs.

- the rest is from Riaan…..

…………… now again look at these tools !!!

go my Boy go!!!

The foot is almost 4cm

 

 

 

 

 

Ok!!! after seeing this comparison, Pls fetch a battery and check it.

If his foot is this size at 20.5 weeks what do you think will it be at 9 months!!!……………….
and you all know what they say about foot vs …… tools.

You go boy!!!

( See rest of scan under Photos.)
