This week Bralyn is hitting the growth charts at 6-7 inches long and a full half a pound in weight! What fruit this week? Bralyn is about the size of a large Mango. A mango dipped in greasy cheese, actually! Vernix caseosa- a greasy white protective substance- that now covers her sensitive skin, protecting it from the surrounding amniotic fluid. Whitout that protection, she would look very wrinkled at birth. This coating does shed as delivery approaches!
She is very active now, and I can feel Bralyn after every time I eat! :) I love that feeling!
