29 Weeks: Miniature Dachshund Status!

I am 29 weeks pregnant. I have 11 weeks to go (or 77 days.) Seems like it is getting closer and closer. Sweet baby girl #2 is now over 16 inches long and weighs close to three pounds. According to a podcast she is the size of a miniature Dachshund. Sounds weird to me. This little baby will double or triple its weight between now and birth. (Let's PRAY it's not triple!!)

There is also a neat picture of what a fetus at 29 weeks looks like In Utero. It is here.

I am still getting bigger by the minute. The heat here just exhausts me. I am hot anyway in the house but then going outside, even to get the mail, makes me so worn out! And August seems to be hotter than the other Summer months here.

I go to the doctor every two weeks and have an appointment tomorrow. I will update about it sometime tomorrow.

And to close this post, here is "Scary Jenna." This is what she does when she "shows us her teeth" or tries to scare us.

isn't pregnancy the most amazing, natural, and yet most ALIEN thing you've ever done? i mean really, you're growing a HUMAN within your body. i've done this 4 times now and it still freaks me out a bit. ;-D

Jenica,
I feel like a science experiment at times!
