Week 36

Week 36

Fetal Development:
With four weeks to go, our baby is almost ready. He could drop into the birth canal (umm he's already been there) at any time now. This week, the fat is dimpling on the elbows and knees as well as forming creases in the neck and wrists (are they calling my baby fat.. hahahaha). The baby's gums are very rigid.


Maternal Changes:
About a month to go you'll probably be visiting your care provider once a week at this point. The average weight gain now is between 25 and 30 pounds. You should be consuming about 2400 calories per day. Make them count! Your body is working hard now and needs quality fuel.
