Baby and I had our 34 week check up this afternoon. Doctor said that baby is "head down" and the heart rate today was 142 (for those of you who are trying to guess the gender). I gained 3 lbs. since my last check up, only 2 weeks ago. That puts me at 26 lbs. overall to date. Doctor also confirmed that, should I go into early labor, they will not stop it at this point.
Current baby info: "Your baby now weighs about 4 3/4 pounds and is probably almost 18 inches long. Her fat layers are filling her out, making her rounder. Her central nervous system is still maturing and her lungs are well developed by now. If you've been nervous about going into preterm labor, you'll be happy to know that 99 percent of babies this age can survive outside the womb — and most have no major long-term problems related to prematurity."
