cantaloupe? i think i'll wait.

wee stats:
heartrate: 140bpm
position: head down on wednesday at 8:30 a.m. but who knows by now?
activity level: nightowl

me stats:
hydrated
happy blood pressure
poundage: +1.5 (29.5 total)
emotional
cankle-free since that one incident
becoming a huffmaster since i get out of breath easily (and by easily i mean by turning over. yes. )


if wee were to be born now, he/she would be about the size of your average cantaloupe and would most likely do just as well a full term baby after a brief stint in the nicu. ahhhhh.
next week.....wee will move up to honeydew status (because, you know, that's larger than a cantaloupe - i swear, i don't make this stuff up -- everyone knows i don't eat fruit so i would have no idea about the relative sizes of cantaloupes and honeydews).

Week Thirty-Four

• Your baby acts completely like a newborn, with her eyes opened when awake and closed when sleeping. You may also find her settling into more of a routine for sleeping & awake times.
• She has learned to blink. She can also see more clearly when there is a bright light on your stomach and probably has the outline of all your organs memorized!
• Antibodies from your blood are being tranferred to him. These immunities continue to build until birth.
• Your baby may have already turned to a head-down position in preparation for birth. If he is your first baby, he may be settling into the pelvis with his head pressing against your cervix.
• Fingernails have reached the end of the fingertips now.
  
• Your little one's length is 17.7 inches (45cm) and weight is 4.7 pounds (2146 g).
