Baby Belly - 36 Weeks

Avery's skin is getting smooth and soft, her gums are rigid, her liver and kidneys are in working order, and her circulation and immune system are basically good to go. Her lungs are the only organs that still need to fully mature, but every day she gets a little closer to breathing on her own!

We had a fantastic Dr. Appt on Saturday- It appears that Avery had a growth spurt over the last two weeks (to be expected). She has dropped and her perfect little head is nestled quite nicely directly on my bladder. Note - every single time I stand up from a sitting position this results in a run to the bathroom! I now know where the restrooms are at all of my frequented stores = ) We are now on to our weekly Dr. visits and according to this last exam we are progressing quite well for a first pregnancy! Our midwife said she will be surprised if Avery waits until her due date!
