According to the bump app, I am at 27 weeks and the baby is the size of a rutabaga. I've reached the point on the app where I actually do not recognize one of the vegetables mentioned. The baby is now between 1.5 and 2.5 pounds.
It's hard to believe that I only "have" 12 weeks or so to go. Being a teacher for 13 years has put the marking period timeframe into my permanent memory.... so, to me, 12 weeks is comparable to a little more than one marking period.... yikes.
I feel like I overthink everything:
Should I get a changing table? Should I get a changing table/dresser combo? How do I know how often to feed the baby or at what times? The list of questions seems limitless.
We signed up for a prenatal class, so that should help quell some anxieties. I think it's amusing b/c the date of our prenatal class is Valentine's Day. February is a crazy month with different family milestones, so that was really the only day that fit.
For now, these are some more recent belly pics. I have to get better with labeling photos by weeks, rather than dates.
