Week 35

Your baby doesn't have much room to maneuver now that he's over 18 inches long and tips the scales at 5 1/4 pounds (pick up a honeydew). Because it's so snug in your womb, he isn't likely to be doing somersaults anymore, but the number of times he kicks should remain about the same. His kidneys are fully developed now, and his liver can process some waste products. Most of his basic physical development is now complete — he'll spend the next few weeks putting on weight.

Had a doctor appointment yesterday. Everything is looking good. Gained another two pounds. Total weight gain is 18 pounds. Baby's heart beat was 156. Dr. Campbell said thing look good see you in two weeks. I have an ultrasound on Tuesday to see if the placenta has moved. So Dr Campbell and I can decide the route we are going to take to deliver the baby.
