We are thirty. Thirty weeks old. Did you make a list? Yep! I can tell when it’s light and dark. Can you? Yep. My brain neurons are developing rapidly. Check! You’ve been practicing your vocabulary! I have to, so they understand we are here. I can make tears. Me too! I’m building fat reserves. Check. I can smell. Check. I can taste. Check. Do you know how big we are? I was busy making the list. I didn’t have time to find out. We’re as big as cabbages. Well, that explains it. Explains what? Why my noggin keeps bumping yours.

I am three. Three years old. Hey, Momma, your belly is bigger than my beach ball and much more fun to hug. Do you know why? Because I hear voices, every time I rest my head right here on your belly… or here, or here! Hey! Which one of you did that? You bumped me! Did you feel it, Momma? What are they playing in there? I want to play too. Now what are they doing? Do you hear them? They sure like to talk. Someone said “snacks.” Hey! That’s a great idea, isn’t it Momma? Can I have one?

We are twenty-nine. Twenty-nine weeks old. What’s something new you can do? I don’t want to talk. Why not? I’m thinking about why Moms and Dads throw us away. Sometimes they don’t want us. How could they not want us? We’re here because of them! I’m glad our parents want us. Hey! Maybe if we share what we can do, others will realize babies are people too. That’s a long list. Exactly. We can do it. Our brains are developing fast with folds and grooves, like the head of a cauliflower. Is that how big we are? Yep. Ok. Let’s do it!

We are twenty-eight. Twenty-eight weeks old. Are you feeling squashed in here? I’ve been feeling squashed since the beginning. Hey, what does that mean? We’re the same size. Your personality is very large. Someone needs to be comic relief. Yep! That’s you. By the way, we’re in the third trimester. We are? Cool! Ya-hoo! Yay! Um, what’s the third trimester? A milestone: we have survived longer than a lot of other babies. What? Sometimes Moms and Dads throw babies away. Why? Why would they do that? Maybe I butternut say. Will you tell me later? Possibly.
