My Baby - Week by Week Pregnancy
Week 34 - Lumps and Bumps
Your baby is tipping the scales at nearly 5 pounds and is 18 inches from head to heel. He or she is running out of room in there and you may now be able to tell whether it is a hand or an elbow pushing against your belly.
The protective vernix coating on your baby's skin is becoming thicker, but the lanugo hair is almost gone.
Your baby may begin to get into position for delivery (hopefully head down). If your baby is in the breech position, your health care provider will continue to monitor its position in the hopes that he or she will turn. If not, you may undergo external cephalic version, or ECV.
