This doctors appointment my weight gain was small 163-166. Our baby's heart rate went down 141-129. I asked my doctor about the due dates the ultrasound tech gave us. Dr. Savage said the due date has been changed to January 19th. So technically if we go off the 19th then I am 35 weeks and 4 days but for all our sakes I will keep going off of my original due date. Dr. Savage said she wont let us go past January 29th which just so happens to be my birthday! We are really excited that our baby girl will be arriving sooner then we expected!!!
34 WEEKS. Your baby now weighs about 4 3/4 pounds (like your average cantaloupe) and is almost 18 inches long. 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.
