Adelyn's skull is not fully solid. it is made up of five large bony plates that are still separated and can be pushed together, which they will be during birth.
During these last few weeks in the womb, Adelyn continues to receive one of the most important ingredients for survival from Amy's blood, from the placenta, and also from the amniotic fluid (which is swallowed periodically): disease-combating antibodies that will provide an immunity to a wide range of illnesses.
Amy is trying to keep busy, but not to push herself too much right now. She's trying to rest, eat well and take care of herself as Adelyn's birthday approaches.
