At week 35, our little peanut is now the size of a butternut squash! Weighing in between 4.2 and 5.8 pounds and 17.2 to 18.7 inches in length. His length probably won't change much in the next 5 weeks, but he will continue to pack on the baby fat. Which means mom will continue to pack on the weight too! Other than weight and length, his hearing is now fully developed. He continues to grow and change as normal!
Baby boy hasn't been causing mom too many problems. I'm still struggling with the heartburn and normal aches and pains and swelling of pregnancy. We have another appointment today, so we will see where we measure at this time. I don't feel like I gained any weight, but we will soon find out!
Tomorrow is St. Patrick's day and also our baby showers. We are super excited to get together with friends and family and celebrate the new life that will soon be in our world. It couldn't get much better than this! :)
The weather is gorgeous, breaking records left and right. We are supposed to hit a high of 79 today! It's only March, so that's a little scary but we also realize that....it's only March! And that means there is still a large possibility of snow on the Great Plains of North Dakota. But the farmers are taking advantage of the nice weather by getting farming equipment ready and enjoying the fact that calving season might not be as stressful as it is when the temps are in the single digits!
Enjoy the weekend and have a green beer for me! Happy St. Patrick's Day :)
Eep! He's coming soon!!! Have a wonderful baby shower and enjoy this beautiful weather!
