35 weeks

The baby weighs about 5 1/2 pounds and is about 20 inches long (20 inches is a normal newborn isn't it).
The book says my feet may be swollen or feel flat (I'm not sure mine could ever be flat). I don't think I've gotten any swelling yet, at least not enough to notice.

So the APA says that most of the growth is complete and the kidneys are completely developed and the liver is beginning to process waste.

It also handily gives me a reason for why I'm short of breath...it is due to your uterus being underneath your rib cage, causing you to have difficulty breathing.

And finally, their advice is: by this point, you should have gained anywhere from 24 to 29 pounds. (Uhh, yeah)
