Belly Update



Jordan and Janet @ 27 weeks!

This week, Jordan's ear nerves are fairly well developed - such that he can hear most of me and Nick's conversations.  He's inhaling and exhaling small amounts of amniotic fluid, which is essential for the development of his lungs.  He weighs about 2 pounds and is around 14-inches long.  He is sleeping and waking at regular intervals and opening and closing his eyes.  His brain tissue is developing very actively.  Nick has just informed me of a doctor's report he heard which said that cruciferous veggies (cauliflower, broccoli, cabbage, brussel sprouts, etc) are a major player in said brain development.  That's good news because I've been eating them almost every day!
