The third trimester is finally here! Amanda is at 28 weeks with the lil’ “Obster” on the way! She is doing fantastic, and Obadiah kicked me last night when I was shining a flash light at her belly and singing songs to him. I already love this kid’s personality!

How your baby’s growing: This week your baby weighs almost 2 pounds (like a head of cauliflower) and is about 14.4 inches long with his legs extended.

How your baby’s growing: Your baby now looks like a miniature newborn, checking in at 10.9 inches (the length of a spaghetti squash) and almost 1 pound. His skin will continue to appear wrinkled until he gains enough weight to fill it out, and the fine hair (lanugo) that covers his head and body is now visible. His lips are …
In the traveling journey for Baby Agnew, we should be at week 20, but when we saw lil’ Obadiah in the ultrasound, the nurse told us that he was actually measuring a week ahead.
