How our baby's growing:
Our baby now weighs about 2 1/2 pounds (like a butternut squash) and is a tad over 15 inches long from head to heel. Her muscles and lungs are continuing to mature, and her head is growing bigger to make room for her developing brain. And because her bones are soaking up lots of calcium, mommy needs to be sure to drink milk (or find another good source of calcium, such as cheese, yogurt, or enriched orange juice--does ice cream count :) ). This trimester, about 250 milligrams of calcium are deposited in our baby's hardening skeleton each day.

Ice cream totally counts!
