Most babies gain about half pound per week in the last month of pregnancy. Fat stores accumulate in the legs and arms. These layers of fat will help them regulate their body temperature. Baby still doesn't have enough fat deposits beneath its skin to keep warm outside your womb. If born now the baby would probably be put in an incubator, about 90% of babies born this week survive. Lungs are almost fully developed. Your baby's reflexes are coordinated, they turn their head, grasp firmly, and respond to sounds, light and touch. You should still feel movement every day. He or she is about 5 and a half pounds and growing fast, it is getting short of space in the womb.Your uterus has become more cramped, your baby's kicks and other movements less forceful.Baby may push up against your ribs and make you a little breathless. Soon your baby's position changes to prepare itself for labor and delivery. The baby drops down in your pelvis and you will be able to breathe easily again.
Hello my sweet baby Lucas. It's Grammy. I'm sorry it's been so long since I've sent you a little message. Don't fear though I've definitely kept up on your progress from Mommy and Daddy. Your Uncle Danny visited and kept Mommy walking around a lot which was good cause then she was able to sleep which was good for you cause when she takes care of herself it is helping you grow and she has always done that from day one. It is only 4weeks until you are supposed to make your debut but we don't know for sure when it will be. Could be sooner could be later. Pappy and I are trying to get somewhat ready because when your Daddy calls and says he's taking Mommy to the hospital we are jumping in our car and heading to Savannah.You just come when you are good and ready.Love you so much little one. Sweet dreams and God bless you.Love Grammy xoxo
