Porkchops and Applesauce



Growth report...

This week, Flurry is about 4 inches long, weighing about 2 1/2 ounces, about the size of an apple. Something that Flurry is doing this week that is quite interesting is that he/she is breathing the amniotic fluid through his/her nose, which help the air sacs in the lungs develop. Who knew? Oh, and more good news. Flurry's legs are now longer than his/her arms. What a relief!!! One other cool tidbit of information...Even though Flurry's eyelids are still fused shut, Flurry can sense light. If you shine a light toward Jamie's belly, Flurry is likely to move away from the light. I am on my way to Wal-Mart to get a flashlight right after I get done with this!!!
