Joaquin is 26 weeks along and about the size of an eggplant. He now weighs a full two pounds and measures nine-plus inches. And this week, his eyes, which until now were developing under fused eyelids, start to open. Of course, there's not much to see in there, but if he spots a bright light (or hears a loud noise) near your belly, he might start moving around because his brain is getting more fully developed and sophisticated.
How far along? 26 weeks
Weight gain/loss: 22 pounds last time I checked.
Sleep? This is getting harder and harder. I'm just not very comfortable anymore.
Best moment this week? It's been a boring week.
Movement: I'm starting to track the movements now with a kick-counting app on my iPhone. It's sort of fun!
Food cravings: Spicy chocolate.
Belly button in or out? Out.
What I miss? Sleeping on my stomach.
What I am looking forward to? My first baby shower on Sunday!
Milestones: Less than 100 days left!!!
What I'm nervous about: Maintaining my energy. I have nothing left at the end of my work day.
