i am clearly pregnant now because strangers are not afraid to ask me when i am due. and when i tell them july they always look shocked, like they expected it to be much sooner than that. yeah the kid is going to be big. just like the 7 pound, 10 ounce "preemie" i had last time :) i don't know if i'll be able to handle it if roo-2 cooks for the whole 40 weeks and comes out as a 10+ pounder!

i am determined to have things go smoothly with this one. quentin's birth was nothing short of chaos, what with us being homeless nomads and all. so i am already prepping a distribution list for the arrival announcement email. i will put everyone i can think of on the list, but to ensure you're on it, you may just want to send me an email (my first name dot my last name at gmail.com) to be safe. as always the blog will be a good place for info too!

from babycenter.com:

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.
