How far along: 29 weeks {and 2 days}
Total weight gain: Between 20-21 lbs... ooohhh how hard it is to see that weight go to 20!!!!! Still on track though. If I gain 10lbs more, that will be perfect.
Size and growth of the baby: Your baby now weighs about 2 1/2 pounds (like a butternut squash) and is a tad over 15 inches long from head to heel.

What's happening this week:
His muscles and lungs are continuing to mature, and his head is growing bigger to make room for his developing brain. To meet his increasing nutritional demands, you'll need plenty of protein, vitamins C, folic acid, and iron. And because his bones are soaking up lots of calcium, be sure to drink your milk (or find another good source of calcium, such as cheese, yogurt, or enriched orange juice). This trimester, about 250 milligrams of calcium are deposited in your baby's hardening skeleton each day.
