Gabriel is a cantaloupe this week...and we are halfway there! He is gulping down several ounces of amniotic fluid every day, both for nutrition and to practice swallowing and digesting. And, these days, his taste buds actually work! Studies show that after birth, babies respond best to tastes they've already had via amniotic fluid. So I hope he is enjoying cantaloupe, because that's what I've been eating lots of this week!
I think I've been feeling him wiggle around, but it is still so hard to tell. I have been feeling lots of little twitches...sort of like when your eye has a twitch. Most people say you'll feel flutters or pops, but not me! Maybe in the next few weeks they will grow to be full blown kicks!
Other than that, not too much to report!
