We both have some milestones this week. Week 28: I have entered the third trimester, my friends! Baby O weighs 2 1/4 pounds and measures 14.8 inches long. That’s BIG. He has eyelashes now, his eyesight is developing, he can open and close his eyes, and can possible see light coming in. He is gaining body fat and the neurons in his brain are developing.
This week’s other milestones for me include possibly developing Restless Leg Syndrome (check!) and entering the time in which I will start to visit the doctor every 2 weeks. We’ll see…I have an appointment next Tuesday.
The other thing we need to debate and decide is whether or not to have a 3D ultrasound, so if you’ve had one, I’d love your input! The technician told me that 28-29 weeks is the ideal time as the baby is formed and looks very much like he will at birth, but isn’t yet too cramped that he’s not moving as much.

I had the 3D US and I kind of feel like it was a waste of money. But baby June also had her hands up by her face, the entire time; she wouldn’t take them down regardless of our poking and prodding! I also think I had it too late. I think I was around 33-34 weeks (or something like that) and I’m pretty sure she was already too cramped. I don’t know, I wasn’t too impressed but just wanted to see her again knowing that we wouldn’t have another ultrasound unless we did that. We did get to see her stick out her tongue! That was a bizarre thing to see! (I guess I’m not very helpful.)
No, it’s totally helpful…the only other opinions I’ve had are that it is AMAZING and mandatory! I don’t have a super strong feeling about it.
