Officially we have reached week 34. The big change is now we will begin seeing the midwives weekly. Yes, we have appointments all the way into the first week of July (hopefully we will not need that many). As for the baby, it is at the point where it is just adding weight and maturing its lungs. Here's what webmd.com has to say, "Your baby measures about 19.8 inches from head to toe and weighs about 5 pounds. Baby is probably settling into the head-down position, although it might not be final. Organs are now almost fully mature, except for lungs, and the skin is pink instead of red. Fingernails reach the ends of fingers, but toenails are not yet fully grown. Baby might have lots of hair. Movements are less frequent because of the tight fit."
