Sorry for the delay in posting an update. Things have been busy around the Howell house the past few weeks with work, the yard, and other things. Sara is at the very uncomfortable stage which is expected with just over a month to go. Maleah is doing very well with a lot of movement and a strong heart.
Week 34
Baby: 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.
Week 35
Baby: Your baby measures about 20.25 inches from head to toe and weighs more than 5.5 pounds. Lungs are almost fully developed, but if born now the baby would probably be put in an incubator. It still doesn't have enough fat deposits beneath its skin to keep warm outside your womb.
There's not too much more to update except our adventure to the Fort tomarrow. See you soon!
