What if your baby is too big at 32 weeks?
Some babies are large at birth. That means, at 8 ounces growth per week for the last few weeks, that changes are noticeable. Pregnant women can look different carrying the same size baby depending on their height, how long-waisted or short waisted (distance from ribs to hips) and muscle tone. Also, keep in mind that it is difficult to estimate the baby's size before it is born--my doctor thought mine was less than 8 pounds. However, I had a ten pound baby without a c-section; and I am sure that other people have done so also. Same deal with c-sections. In any case, the baby will be born and you will be glad.

Why do ring-necked pheasants change colors in the summer and the winter?
it is a natural self defense mechanism of the ring-necked pheasant to change color according to the season . In its natural habitat the surroundings(the grass, leaves etc...) change color with the seasons(summer-orangish red and winter-white). The bird sheds its feathers after each season and grow new feathers with different colors so that it could camouflage with the new surroundings to protect it from predators. However this phenomenon may not take place if the bird is taken to another place with different climatic conditions as it may be able to camouflage itself in the new surroundings without changing color.
