Had my Ob Check up today and went pretty good. Weight, blood pressure good. Claire seems a little low may already be getting into position. Go back in 2wks and we will schedule a C-Section the week of May 4-8 incase i don't go into labor. I'm hoping i do and don't have another c-section but we will see what happens. Tomorrow we have maternity/family portraits. I can't wait to see them!
We had a scare Wednesday. i started having strong contractions and Cory took me to Labor & Delivery. They monitored me there for a few hours giving me IV Fluids then an hour later demerol. Finally my contractions stopped and i was released to go home.
Week Thirty Three
* Amniotic fluid is at its highest level during your pregnancy.* Your baby's head size has increased 3/8ths of an inch due to rapid brain growth.
* Neurons and synapses are developing in huge numbers -- forming connections in your baby's brain will give her the skills he needs to thrive as a newborn. This week, she may be able to coordinate sucking and swallowing with breathing.
* While most of her bones are hardening, her skull is quite pliable and not completely joined. The bones will be able to move slightly to make birthing easier.
* You baby takes intermittent deep breaths -- of water! That's okay, though since she gets oxygen from the placenta. This breathing exercises muscles and encourages her lung cells to produce more surfactant (a protein essential for healthy lung development).
* Your infant is now about 17.2 inches (43.7cm) long and weighs about 4.23 pounds (1918gm) around the size of a pineapple (Your baby is proportioned like a pineapple when it comes to weight)
