What Miles has been up to this week:
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. His skeleton is rapidly ossifying (turning from cartilage into solid bone), which means that kicks will become very visible as the trimester progresses. He’s quickly approaching his birth length though he’s got to pack on another three to five pounds before D-day. He’s now processing information, tracking light, and perceiving signals from all five senses. He’s also putting in longer stretches of sleep, which is why I'm noticing more defined patterns of awake (and moving) periods and sleeping (pretty still) periods.
