Are you sleeping... are you sleeping, cute baby, cute baby?

My dear intelligent child,

Bismillaahirrahmaanirrahiimmm...

Surah Al-Hijr (verses 28-29)

Behold! thy Lord said to the angels: "I am about to create man, from sounding clay from mud moulded into shape;
"When I have fashioned him (in due proportion) and breathed into him of My spirit, fall ye down in obeisance unto him."

Surah An-Nisa (verse 1)

O mankind! reverence your Guardian-Lord, who created you from a single person, created, of like nature, His mate, and from them twain scattered (like seeds) countless men and women;- reverence Allah, through whom ye demand your mutual (rights), and (reverence) the wombs (That bore you): for Allah ever watches over you.

Here's fetal development according to http://www.babycentre.co.uk/ during weeks 33-36:

Your baby's head is getting bigger, and brain growth is very rapid at this time. Nearly all babies react to sound by 30 weeks. Your baby's nutritional needs reach their peak during the third trimester. You'll need plenty of protein, vitamin C, folic acid, iron and calcium (about 200 milligrams is deposited in your baby's skeleton every day), so eat foods rich in these nutrients.

****************************************

Your baby's lungs and digestive tract are almost fully developed. While your baby may soon slow up growing in length, s/he will continue to gain weight until he's born. This week your baby continues to open and shut his/her eyes. S/he can probably see what's going on in utero, distinguish light from dark and even track a light source. If you shine a light on your stomach, your baby may move his head to follow the light or even reach out to touch the moving glow. To complete the picture, your baby now has eyebrows and eyelashes.

****************************************

Don't panic if you feel your baby moving less frequently now. S/he's got less room to move in your uterus and can't do the backflips and somersaults you're both used to. As long as you can feel him/her squirming from time to time, s/he's fine. By this stage, most babies have turned head down into the "cephalic" position ready for birth. A few take a little longer and a few remain stubbornly upright in the "breech" position. If your baby is breech, there's still time for her to turn.

Your baby's arms, legs and body continue to fill out -- and they are finally proportional in size to her head. S/he weighs about 3.3 pounds/1.5 kilograms and looks more like a newborn.

****************************************

Some babies have a head of hair already, others have only a few wisps. Thick hair at birth doesn't necessarily mean thick hair later on but children with fine hair in childhood usually have thinner hair in adulthood. If your baby is a boy, his testicles should be descending from his abdomen into his scrotum. Sometimes however, one or both testicles won't move into position until after birth. In two-thirds of all baby boys who have undescended testicles at birth, the condition corrects itself by the boy's first birthday.
