Poor bradon is coming down with some kind of cold and its knocking the poor kid out.. i really hope i don't get it.. As for me, i just feel like i could sleep the WHOLE day. Pretty much none of my shoes fit anymore and when i try to wear any they just swell up even more! it's just lovely..

Milestone: Her fat layers — which will help regulate her body temperature once she's born — are filling her out, making her rounder. Her skin is also smoother than ever. Her central nervous system is maturing and her lungs are continuing to mature as well. If you've been nervous about preterm labor, you'll be happy to know that babies born between 34 and 37 weeks who have no other health problems generally do fine. They may need a short stay in the neonatal nursery and may have a few short-term health issues, but in the long run, they usually do as well as full-term babies.
