35/35 today (35 weeks, with 35 days to go)...can't believe how quickly it's going. Baby has less room to maneuver now that she's over 18 inches long and tips the scales at 5 1/4 pounds (like a honeydew melon). Because she's so snug, she's not doing somersaults anymore, but she still manages to roll over (which makes the right side of my belly stick up higher than my left), elbow my side and kick me in the ribs. Her kidneys are fully developed now, and her liver can process some waste products. Most of the basic physical development is now complete — she'll spend the next few weeks putting on weight.
