28 Weeks - 7 Months

I am 28 weeks today and really starting to feel the effects of pregnancy. I have been getting heartburn and my ankles are starting to swell at night.

Paw Paw Jim Bob is here visiting for the weekend. We just spent a few hours in Home Depot and Super Walmart so that Tory and Jim Bob can work on the flower garden. We're very glad he's here since we haven't seen him since Christmas.

Here's what going on with me and the baby:(pregnancyguideonline)
Your uterus is around 3 inches above your navel; average weight gain is between 17 and 24 pounds at this point.
Our little miracle is growing and developing at an astonishing rate! Eyebrows and eyelashes are now present, and the hair on the head is growing. The eyelids open, and the eyes are completely formed. The body is getting plumper and rounder (weighs about 2 pounds) and is composed of around 2 to 3% body fat. Muscle tone is gradually improving.
