34 Weeks


Baby Bontrager is now 34 weeks!!! This is a big milestone week for the baby. By now his lungs are almost fully developed and his central nervous system is still maturing but 99% of babies born at 34 weeks can survive outside of the womb. Good news if I go early. We are still hoping he stays in there at least a few more weeks putting on some more fat layers and it gives us a couple of more weeks to prepare!

As the baby is getting bigger, I'm getting bigger & more uncomfortable. Fortunatley it hasn't been too bad up until this point but I am counting down the days until I am off of bedrest so I can get up and walk around. That seems to help with my uncomfortableness. Here's another pic of my ever growing belly.

I can't wait until you get off of bedrest so that we can jog up to Starbucks for a latte.

I hope by "jog" you mean drive a car...I haven't seen Tina "jog" since the 2003 Batesville 5k, where she got beat by a 73 year old woman!
