week 34 milestones
September 18th, 2011 by tatay
benig just hit his gestational age of 35 weeks on friday. a look back at week 34:
- benig hit 2200 grams (4 lbs, 13 oz).
- benig got taken off the caffeine he was taking to prevent apnea spells
- benig learned how to drink from a bottle
mom and dad also crossed the refrigeration rubicon: we had to purchase a 7 cubic foot chest freezer to store all of the milk mom’s been pumping out.
That last photo is awesome: it captures Christina’s expression so perfectly, one that I read as a realization that “I am a milk producing machine…”
benigs! i’m so proud of you! especially, for underhandedly making your parents buy a separate freezer, which will store all your milk now, BUT shall also hold your 7 cubic feet of ice cream and ralph’s in the future!!! i hope you will share with me. =)
i like his pensive pose with the hand on the face
