goldblatt the hothouse cucumber

Ready? Sure? Okay then. It's Week 26!

Professor Goldblatt is percolating in Overboard's belly and working on her hearing these days. The network of nerves in her ears are getting more and more developed and adept at eavesdropping on conversations between Overboard and the rest of the world. She's like a tiny lil' member of the NSA in there.

The good professor is also inhaling and exhaling small amounts of amniotic fluid, which will help her lungs develop and get ready for that first (of many) blasts of air out here in the world.

She's also pudging up, weighing in around a pound and two-thirds.

Finally, Goldblatt is roughly 14 inches from head to heel, or about the size of an English hothouse cucumber. I totally know what that looks like, because I just Googled it to get an image for the top of this post.

In Overboard news, she's doing okay. A bit achy in some joints, and still battling "Pregnant Memory," but generally doing fine and simply leading with her belly.
