34 Weeks only 4 weeks to go before induction!

Your baby's preparing for her arrival in just a few short weeks! By now, your baby weighs around 5 pounds and may be as long as 20 inches, head to toe. Her fat layers —which will help regulate her body temperature once she's born — are filling her out, making her rounder. Her skin is also smoother than ever. Her central nervous system is maturing and her lungs are continuing to mature as well. If you've been nervous about preterm labor, you'll be happy to know that babies born between 34 and 37 weeks who have no other health problems generally do fine. They may need a short stay in the neonatal nursery and may have a few short-term health issues, but in the long run, they usually do as well as full-term babies. In the coming weeks her head will go down further behind the pubic bone. The pressure of the growing baby and your loosening pelvis will allow the baby to descend lower and lower in your pelvic region. Even if her head is engaged she can still easily turn on her axis. At one moment, she is lying with her back to the right, the next minute she turns to the left, which will feel like a huge movement - anyone could see this on the outside! You'll hear her heart on the right one minute and left the next.

~It is just about time for Makayla to be born, only 4 weeks to go! I can't tell you how excited I am but at the same time I am saddened thinking of her not being in my belly anymore. Time is flying by!
