Week Thirty Two: Bone Development

As of today peanut has reached week 32. Leaving only 55 days to go, but he will be here before I know it. As far as his development goes, he will be weighing in at 4 pounds and is 15-17 inches tall. At this stage his skin is less translucent and pinker, as fat is deposited under his skin. What is interesting is that up until now his skeleton was just cartilage and has begun the ossifying into solid bone. This will mean his kicks will be stronger. Not only that, his kicks will become visible like in those scary movies when you see a figure move in a wall. With well-placed kicks under the ribs will take my wife's breath away. I bet my wife is going to love this!
