Lucas had his first visit to the Consultatiebureau today, where we learned that he has now grown to 4210g and 53cm. That’s quite an achievement in such a small space of time. No wonder he needs to sleep so much: it must be exhausting to increase your bulk by 20% in just over three weeks.
I’ve put up a few more week three photos, as well as a bunch from this week. The week four photos are definitely the best yet; Lucas even has his eyes open in some of them.
Sarah made a fruit smoothie the other day and added a spoonful of ground placenta to the mix, just to see how it tasted. Whichever positive qualities the placenta possesses, a pleasant taste is not one of them, it has to be said.
