Our family (Capucao Family) had a very sad and rough moment this time. Inay Ayang (my mother-in-law) passed away... This was very stressful for all of us... We will never forget her and she will always remain in our hearts...

We started the washing and ironing of my baby's clothes and beddings and fixing and cleaning our room and all her stuff like the crib, stroller, bassinet and others. I personally arranged all her things...

How your baby's growing: Your baby's getting big. He weighs a tad over 5 pounds and is just over 18 inches long. Because it's so snug in your womb, he isn't likely to be doing somersaults anymore, but the number of times he kicks should remain about the same. His kidneys are fully developed now, and his liver can process some waste products. Most of his basic physical development is now complete — he'll spend the next few weeks putting on weight.

Note: Every baby develops a little differently — even in the womb. Our information is designed to give you a general idea of your baby's development.
