Week 29
Here we are at week 29 and Jack is really growing! Lara and I went to a couples prenatal yoga together last week. I learned several techniques to help Lara with the discomforts of labor. We start our birthing class in December. I will write more interesting stuff about my feelings at some other time after breakfast.

Week 29 info from the Baby Center:
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. 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.
