We are 34 weeks today! I had another doctor's appointment this morning. The baby has turned so that his back is to my left now. Up to this point, he seemed to prefer the right side. His head is still down (yay!). When the doctor checked the positioning of his head, he immediately started turning his head to the left and right (ouch!) and flailing his arms and legs. He still does not like for anyone to mess with him - not that I blame him! I can only imagine the fit this guy is going to pitch when he is born and has to be checked out. He seems to get stronger everyday and is still incredibly active. We scheduled another ultrasound for Monday, July 13. At that point, the doctor hopes to give us a more accurate idea of his weight and length so that we can predict what his birth size will be. Right now the doctor says his growth is right on target, so at 34 weeks, a developing baby typically is about 4 1/2 pounds. My next regular appointment in Friday, July 17.
You look so good!!! 7 pounds is a good size. Keep eating ice cream and get some fat on that baby. I had the boys the first day of my 35th week. Everything was fine the babies were healthy just small. The next few weeks will seem so long and when you have him 5 weeks will seem like 5 days...
