Your baby is now about 2.5 pounds and over 15 inches long. If you're feeling strange little rhythmic flutters, those are baby hiccups! As for you, you're struggling with the usual lower back ache with maybe some heart burn thrown into the mix, or even constipation. With all the activity in your body right now, you might still need some time to decide whether you're going to breastfeed or not.
If you’ve been feeling weird little fluttering butterflies in your belly, it’s not just your run-of-the-mill pre-birth performance anxiety.
Actually, it's your amazing baby with a case of the hiccups: a fairly common occurrence at this point, due to them practicing breathing for their big birthday.
In addition to getting a round of butterfly-like hiccups, your little swimmer has arduously managed to accumulate enough baby fat to account for nearly 3.5% of their overall body weight.
Yeah, compared to we lardy adults, it’s not very impressive, but considering they used to have NO fat, it’s certainly a healthy (and body-warming) accomplishment in its way.
Another fantastic life-critical accomplishment: your baby's spleen is now in charge of hematopoiesis — the 10 dollar name for the process involved in building up certain important blood components.
