I can't believe that I'm already over halfway through this pregnancy, given I'll have a repeat c-section by at least 39 weeks. I can feel him moving multiple times a day now. My belly feels heavy when I lay only partially on my side so I have to lay so my belly is laying on the couch or bed. I noticed today that if I stand too long my knees start to hurt. I'm definitely reaching the point where aches and pains are going to happen more frequently now.
This week our son should be about 9-10 oz. and have a crown-to-rump length of about 6 inches. The amniotic fluid has reached a volume of about 12 ounces. Our baby's heart is beating at a rate of 120 to 160 beats per minute. The baby's sense of smell is present now. Our son has as much sleep and awake time as a newborn. The scalp hair begins to grow.
