Size matters

According to the "Rough Guide to Pregnancy and Birth" by Kaz Cooke, Toblet is now 20cm (at 23 weeks today) and around 0.5kg (2lb).

Am I obsessing about this? There is very little else in the books (of which we have even more now) about the baby. It seems that the exciting bit as the baby forms is pretty much over, and now it is simply a race to be big enough and fat enough to survive birth.

Kaz, I guess, was chosen as author because an Emma, Karen or Gillian just wouldn't be right for a Rough Guide.

Kaz.

Yeah.

If you haven't already done so then take a look at 'Your Pregnancy Day-by-Day' by Professor Stuart Campbell. It has great 3D scan pictures to help you visualise what your baby might be like at different points in the pregnancy and tells you lots about the developmental stages of the baby as well as general stuff about pregnancy.

Hope you've enjoyed reading our blog.
