Mom and I were reading up on what's going on this week, development-wise, and What to Expect informed us that my uterus is now the size of a basketball.
Let's see...
Yep - that's about right!
And Dad, you'll be so proud. When we read that, the very first comment Mom made was a reference to how appropriate it is that I'm walking around with a basketball under my shirt during March Madness. Go Mom with the timely sports references!
They also said that the baby may now recognize my voice! Better get used to it - Mama's got a lot to tell you...
They also suggested serenading your belly, which I already do. In fact, my Aunt Cheryl advised me around Christmas to pick out one song or tune to sing as a lullaby and to get her started early so that she'll recognize it later and will learn to go to sleep to it. She said she can still start humming the one she sang to her kids and they get a little sleepy. It's nutty how the human mind works, isn't it?
Caroline - if you're reading this - you'll be very pleased to know that mine is "Weep You No More, Sad Fountains" from Sense and Sensibility.
Anyone else have any lullaby suggestions?
