33 weeks and 1 day
Here we are. On the serious part of the homestretch. We are ready. Or ready as we'll ever be, I guess. We have an ultrasound in 3 weeks to determine her size and "go from there." I love when a doctor says that. What does that mean exactly? Hmmmm...I guess in 3 weeks we will find out. Our baby is currently in the 98th percentile for weight. Where does she get her amazing chubiness from? Your guess is as good as mine. I weighed 7.5 lbs and Chad was 8 pounds even. The dr said, "Well, it comes from somewhere!" So unless our parents lied to us...we have made a big baby. (All of this according to an estimate on an ultrasound, so the kid could come out weighing a "normal" 6-8 pounds!) We'll take her anyway we can! Healthy and plump.
She has been getting the hiccups a lot in the past few days. She got them for the first time on April 19th. And has continued to get them 2-3 times a day. It's really cute watching her. She wiggles a ton when she has them. I think it's her way of trying to get rid of them! Poor thing, doesn't know how.
We have 48 days until my due date! I keep telling Chad she WILL come early. And he keeps saying she won't. And I told him telling your very pregnant wife that is almost like a death sentence. I think one of the things keeping me sane during this super uncomfortable, uncontrollable swelling time, is the fact that the doctor said last week, "If you want, I can always induce you a few days early!" Which lets face it, that's like the heavens opening up and angels singing over you. So my guess is June 3rd.....all together now....JUNE 3RD, JUNE 3RD, JUNE 3RD!
