34 weeks gestation

We've been keeping track of Samuel's weight and height on the premature baby curve, as well as the actual age curve. He's not yet on the charts for actual age, of course, but he is on the charts for preemies! I've forgotten to discontinue all of the emails I signed up for while pregnant. One told me that by 34 weeks pregnant, my "baby is now 4.7 pounds and just shy of 18 inches long!!" Samuel is 4 pounds 14 ounces and somewhere between seventeen and eighteen inches. 

Little boy is perfectly average. His weight is getting to be above average. The Neonatalogist informed us that our son will likely be an average weight at 40 weeks gestation, and fall on the charts for adjusted age right at 50%.

Cannot wait to continue to watch him grow!
