- Your baby probably weighs just over 7 pounds (3250g) by now and measures about 14.4 inches (36cm) from crown to rump and has a total length of about 21.5 inches (48cm).
- Your baby's lungs are the last part to develop before birth. Once the lungs are developed, your baby is ready for life outside the womb.
- By now your baby has almost run out of space to move in your uterus.
- Your baby has shed most of her lanugo, though she may still have some on her shoulders and in the creases of her body.
- Her toenails reach the end of her toes.
- The umbilical cord, which still is supplying your baby with nutrition as she gains more weight, may be knotted or wrapped around her.
- Some of your antibodies have crossed the placental barrier and give your baby's immune system a boost to get her started until hers is fully functioning.
- Your baby could be born any day now.
