34 weeks - did you know?

• Baby Boy is between 17-18 inches and weighs about 5 pounds.
• His central nervous system is continuing to mature and the lungs are well developed.
• If he were to be born right now he would be called a pre-term infant instead of premature. The only difference is in the maturity, particularly lung maturity. A pre-term baby is less likely to need intensive care because its lungs have developed.
• He is still rotating to the head down position for delivery.
