mommy is letting me give the weekly update today. i now weigh about 2 1/2 pounds and am almost 16 inches long! i've been practicing my rolling and kicking all week. i'm even able to reach mommy's ribs. i've started blinking and coughing and am breathing better every day. if i was delivered today, i would have an excellent chance of surviving since my lungs are very close to maturity. i still have a lot of growing to do, so i think i'll stick around for another 12 weeks before making my official appearance.
love,
baby merkel

belly button looking almost ready to pop! too bad you dont have a cool tattoo around your belly to showcase the popage.
haha - i think it will pop soon because it's really shallow now. i'll decorate around it to celebrate when it pops, just for you.
