36 weeks, 5 days

that is how old Lucas is-he has surpassed the amount of time he spent in the womb. I wonder how different things would have been if we had gotten to the 35 or 36 week mark before he needed to be delivered. Would he have had such a hard time breathing? Would he have needed to be under the bili lights? How long would he have needed to be in the NICU? How big would he have been?

I always knew that my doctor would not let me go past my due date-she told me that they would get me to 37 weeks and take it from there.
