The baby now weighs nearly 1.5 pounds/ 660 grams and is approximately 13.5 inches/ 35 centimeters long from crown to heel. He makes breathing movements but has no air in his lungs yet. At 26 weeks, fetal brain scans show response to touch. If you shine a light on your abdomen, your baby will turn his head, which according to researchers, means his optic nerve is working.
At every prenatal visit, your doctor will take your blood pressure and do tests on a sample of your urine. In this way, pregnancy-related conditions such as pre-eclampsia and diabetes can be detected and treated.
Your fingers, wrists and hands may be feeling achy and numb. The carpal tunnel in the wrist is swollen, as are many other tissues in your body. Nerves that run through the tunnel end up pinched, creating pressure that manifests itself as shooting or burning pain. Wearing a brace may help; so will taking vitamin B6. Talk to your doctor about other ways to cope. Find out about natural remedies for numb or achy fingers.

Last week me and Jay were on Robinsons to buy his basketball shoes and we saw the cutest Nike shoes ever! I sow anted to buy one for Adam since they cost P800-P1,500 only (pretty steep if you'll consider the fact that they are just like 2 inches long and will just fit him for 2 months or so). Jay said that his Ate will be giving us Micah's Nike shoes for Adam to use. Pamana! Micha is the only boy in the brood until now so all his cutesy clothes, shoes and toys will be given to Adam. I have little qualms in using second hand things. I am the eldest in our brood and I am the one who usually give out hand me downs. But Jay said that Micah only used them for a month or two so they won't be gasgas. Sige na nga. But I'll be buying my son his first owned Nike shoes din! :)
