Baby boy is estimated to be between 5.5 and 6 lbs. at this point. All measurements are normal except for length, he's long! His feet are 3 inches in length at this point and his hands are long but we couldn't get an exact measurement since he was busy pinching me...grrr. Nothing like having my theories confirmed. He's head down, doing pushups on my intestines, and pinching the sides of my uterus with his hands and feet. Jamie and the ultrasound tech cracked up as he twisted and turned and made the ultrasound wand jump off my belly to get away from the scan.
They said I could last until January 25th but we don't think it's likely considering his growth...just have to wait at this point and see. He's doing great, which is a huge relief with my gestational diabetes, and the pressure is off as far as him possibly being so big that they would want us to induce. We want him to take as much time as he likes to cook but we all are anxious to meet him. I'm pretty sure my bladder will cry with relief to have my parasite out. At least we know he's happy and active in there! Nora's favorite position in utero was the cannonball up under my ribs. His? The inverted frog, kicks included.
Someone has got chubby cheeks! It appears that he's going to look a lot like Nora based on this.
She managed to get a picture of him sticking his tongue out.
Big hands!
Big feet!
