So one benefit of the high blood pressure bidness is that I get to have weekly sonograms to make sure little man is doing okay. And when I say little, I don't MEAN little. I mean huge. He was measuring 6 lbs 5 oz today! Um, my best friend's baby, little sweet P, was born at 6 lbs 3 oz, only ONE week early.
{That's me holding little P about 18 months ago, the day she was born. As in, I have a baby. In my stomach. As in, the one I'm holding in this picture. HOLY. SCHNYKIES.}
And C still has a good 4 weeks of growin' to go. The Mister actually said "Are we sure this is our kid?" today. I mean seriously. We are not big people friends. I'm no more than 5' 3" and he's about 5' 9". Seriously, where did this kid come from? But I'm so happy he's big and SO happy he's looking so great! They did a test today that he had 10 points total he could score. And my boy scored ALL. 10. 2 points were for seeing evidence that he was using his lungs (breathing in and out), 2 points for a certain amount of movement in a certain amount of time, 2 points for a good amount of amniotic fluid, 2 points for showing that he was growing and 2 points for doing well on his NST (fetal non stress test)! And 10 it was! And here's the most fun part of the day, the pictures! The first picture is evidence that the little man has HAIR! I know the whole "if you have heartburn the baby has hair" thing is a myth, but in my case it was true! NEVER in my life have I had heartburn, but with this baby? Tons. So, without further adieu, here's our little guy as of late ...
{Little spikes of hair!}
{Sweet little face with his hand next to it, laying on his side.}
{Touching his toes. Must get that from his daddy. Momma is NOT flexible, as in yoga is not my friend}
{Another picture of his sweet face, from last week, same position, laying on his side}
And I'll have MORE next week! CAN. NOT. WAIT!!! In mommy news, I'm doing great, my BP was good when I went in and she's restricted my bed rest a LITTLE bit (as in let me go to an event that I was REALLY sad about missing this weekend) so this is one ECSTATIC momma! And last but not least, we HAVE a date (if little man doesn't decide to come on his own first), November 17th we'll be inducing to bring little C into the world. He would be 39 weeks at that point and my doctor doesn't think it makes any sense, given that I've had the high BP, to try and wait it out until he comes. SO we will have a baby in this house in exactly 4 weeks from this Wednesday! EEK!!! SOfreaked out excited!!!
In otherDWTS news, I wanted to kick Len in the huevos last night. Seriously, a 5 for Kyle & Lacey!?!? Please. Straight ridiculous. Pffftttttt on you Len! And that's all I have to say about that. Happy Tuesday everyone!
