Week 24 - Update

Here's what Baby Center has to say about week 24:

How your baby's growing: Your baby's growing steadily, gaining about a quarter of a pound since last week, when she was just over a pound. Since she's almost a foot long (picture an ear of corn), that makes a pretty lean figure, but her body is filling out proportionally and she'll soon put on more baby fat. Your baby's skin is thin, translucent, and wrinkled, her brain is growing rapidly, and her taste buds are developing. Her lungs are developing "branches" of the respiratory "tree" and cells that produce surfactant, a substance that helps the air sacs inflate easily.

What's great is the link to this handy picture:I think it's great how they picked out such a nice looking ear of corn.

We also found some more pictures from I-Am-Pregnant.com (these ones might give you a better idea what Izzy might look like right now):


I know, probably not as helpful as that picture of the ear of corn and the quarter, but we like to share as much information as possible.

Right now, I'm looking forward to being able to feel Izzy kicking more often, now it's a little hit and miss. As always we'll keep you posted.
