Pregnancy Ticker

26 Weeks

Big sister Tay knows that there's a baby in mommy's tummy, but I don't think she has any idea what that actually means. We're getting excited to meet him! And yes, I just realized this is the same shirt I was wearing for the 24-week photo. Maternity clothes that fit are getting sparse!





Baby Williams is 14 inches this week - the length of an english cucumber - and weighs about 1.75 lbs. His newest trick is grasping things (like the umbilical cord). His ears are better developed and he can now hear mommy, daddy and Taylor's voice. He's inhaling and exhaling small amounts of amniotic fluid, which is essential for the development of his lungs. This is good practice for when he's born and takes that first gulp of air.
