17 and Growing

Your baby is forming brown fat deposits under his or her skin, by the end of pregnancy this will account for 2-6% of their total body weight. This will help them maintain their body temperature when they are born. The baby weighs in at about 5 ounces (142 grams). This means that the baby now weighs more than the placenta. No new structures have formed.
Loud noises outside may actually cause the baby to startle.

Its the last sentence I am not allow to prove. Charissa has rules about scaring her. I don't like the rule but I have to abide by it.

Though we won't have any doctors visits, or showers thrown, the weeks are still exciting just acknowledging the miracle in our house. We have been shown grace through God.
