This week....

I get weekly e-mails telling me what is happening....crazy how big he is getting!! Here is what they say this week:

YOUR PREGNANCY - WEEK 36
Your baby will be weighing in at around 5.78 pounds and measuring 18.66 inches. If you have not yet dropped (your baby has moved down into the birth canal) your uterus should now sit about 14 cm above your bellybutton and about 36cm above your pubic symphysis.
At this point of your pregnancy your healthcare provider should be able to tell you how your baby is presenting, for example if the head is down or if it may be in a breech position.
Usually around weeks 32-35 you can feel the baby's head in your lower abdomen below the umbilicus, sometime the baby's head may not be hard enough to be identified as the head. The head will become harder as calcium is deposited in the fetal skull.
