37 Weeks - We are officially Full Term!


37 Week Ultrasound

This week (according to babycenter.com) the baby is around 6 and 1/3 lbs, and 19 inches long. At our appt. this week, we had an ultrasound, and it said the baby is 7 lbs, 4 oz already! If this is right, then he/she is going to be a chunky monkey, if we go to our due date! I know ultrasounds aren't always accurate... but if it is, holy cow!!

I thought I was going to be checked, by ultrasound, to see if I am dilated at all, but the tech said that it's not very accurate; that the physical exams are the best, so she did not measure anything. When we met with Sherry to go over everything, she did not want to check me either, unless I was concerned for some reason, so I did not get checked. I was really happy about that!

I've still been having lots of contractions, but nothing out of the ordinary. We have our appointment with the photographer on Friday, to get our maternity pictures taken. Not much else new going on... until next week...!
