33 Weeks: progress....

Astro has been indifferent, bordering on avoidant since my belly has gotten bigger and bigger. When we point to it and ask "Whats this?," he turns his head or walks away. This morning, Astro was finally not freaked by the belly, although he looks a little bit like he's doing it to humor us......

Week 33

How your baby's growing:

This week your baby weighs a little over 4 pounds (heft a pineapple) and has passed the 17-inch mark. He's rapidly losing that wrinkled, alien look and his skeleton is hardening. The bones in his skull aren't fused together, which allows them to move and slightly overlap, thus making it easier for him to fit through the birth canal. (The pressure on the head during birth is so intense that many babies are born with a conehead-like appearance.) These bones don't entirely fuse until early adulthood, so they can grow as his brain and other tissue expands during infancy and childhood.
