Week 35 Update

Only 35 days left!

Owen is getting big! He weighs a tad over 5 pounds (think bag of sugar) and is just over 18 inches long from head to heel. His kidneys are fully developed now, and his liver can process some waste products. Most of his basic physical development is now complete and the next few weeks are all about putting on weight.

I mean, that’s what they tell me anyway.

In reality, all I know is that Owen is very active still. Kicking and punching me at every opportunity. Or at least when I am trying to sleep!

The “uncomfortable” stage is beginning. But I’m finding ways to cope and relieve some of the pain.
