34 weeks

No long now only six weeks to go.
Melody likes to kick around still which is great.
No sleeping all that well with the acid reflux and still feeling the effects of the flu.
Tried not to take too much still worried about passing chemicals into her system.
Last week they found protein in my urine and sugar a well so they took more blood which came back negative.
Have to go to the hospital this week for my 34 week anti d shot.
Did some research this week and found that A- people are only 7% of the australian population. Where as 0+ are 40% so I already have one common blood group child and one uncommon can't wait to see what I get this time!
I also have another ultrasound this week to check size.

Week Thirty-Four

* Your baby acts completely like a newborn, with her eyes opened when awake and closed when sleeping. You may also find her settling into more of a routine for sleeping & awake times.
* She has learned to blink. She can also see more clearly when there is a bright light on your stomach and probably has the outline of all your organs memorized!
* Antibodies from your blood are being tranferred to her. These immunities continue to build until birth. Then breastmilk will add even more protection against disease.
* Your baby may have already turned to a head-down position in preparation for birth. If she is your first baby, she may be settling into the pelvis with her head pressing against your cervix.
* Fingernails have reached the end of the fingertips now. She may scratch her face even before she is born!
* Your little one's length is 17.7 inches (45cm) and weight is 4.7 pounds (2146 g).
