Week 36


Baby boy, we got to see you playing around in there today, and you're just as adorable as ever. As we headed into the doctors appointment today your father and I put a couple of bets on what we would find out.


I guessed that you would still be laid out sideways and be about 5.5 lbs. I mean I know you're a big boy, but you still move around so much I figured you cant be THAT big.


Your dad guessed that you would be head down ready to go, and that you would be weighing in at about 6 lbs, just like the books said.


And the truth is that you're already weighing in at 7.1 lbs with four weeks to go. In fact your lil belly and head are the same size. How cute are you gonna be with your lil fat rolls?!?! But oh what am I going to do with all those newborn clothes that you'll NEVER fit into! hahaha

The good news though is that you are head down!! YEAH!!!! So we will be trying to do this labor thing without the surgery, but that all depends on how much weight you gain in the next 3 weeks. According to the doc you can still gain about 1/2 lbs a week so we've decided to induce by May 2nd if you havent already made your arrival!!


So baby E your due date is set, you will be here in exactly 3 weeks on May 3rd and me and your dad can hardly believe it. We've waited so long for you, and cannot believe its finally time. See you soon lil man!!
