This week, your baby measures over 16 inches long. He weighs about 3.3 pounds and is heading into a growth spurt. He can turn his head from side to side, and his arms, legs, and body are beginning to plump out as needed fat accumulates underneath his skin. He's probably moving a lot, too, so you may have trouble sleeping because your baby's kicks and somersaults keep you up. Take comfort: All this moving is a sign that your baby is active and healthy.
OK so these things arent always exact. That's why it says "about 3.3 pounds" Remember I posted two weeks ago that Grayson weighed 3 pounds 4 ounces? He is probably over 4 pounds now and heading into a growth spurt. If I carry him all the way until his due date on Sept. 29 he will be well over 8 pounds. This is why I am hoping he comes early like his brother did!
