According to Baby Center.com she is 13 1/2 inches long and weighs in at about one and half pounds! The vegetable of comparison for the week - A Rutabaga!
The Bump.com compares her to an Eggplant. Eggplant I get... but what the heck is a Rutabaga?
Either way - she's definitely growing!
Friday we had our 6 month check up and all seems to be well! She had a nice strong heart beat at 150 bpm and I've finally gained some weight... 4 lbs total over the course of the pregnancy so far!
We had a glucose tolerance test on Friday too... with the family history, its kind of a toss up to see how that one will come back. I didn't hear from the doctor or the nurse yesterday, so maybe that's a good thing. Lets keep our fingers crossed for no gestational diabetes!!
on a sadder note - my absentmindedness strikes again. I forgot to check pockets while doing the laundry this weekend... As I laid out the jeans, I kept finding bits of paper. I thought it was just a receipt or something but upon closer inspection discovered that it was our Blink 182 concert tickets :( Total Bummer! Rob and I keep all of our stubs... and that was certainly the plan for Edie's first show. sigh...
