Baby Update – He’ll Be Here Soon!!

by Christine - From Dates to Diapers on September 30, 2010

Yesterday’s OB appointment proved to be very encouraging!

I just had a feeling I was further along this whole time, but I hadn’t seen my OB since my ultrasound. Instead, I had seen the nurse practitioner who only dismissed my measurements, due to the fact that this was my seventh baby and my body “knows what to do.”

Um, okay.

Now, at 35 weeks, I am measuring in at 38 cm and have already gained 50 pounds! That’s more than any of my other pregnancies at full term, so I feel huge. I honestly think I am closer to 39 weeks, so I feel good about my size and the size of the baby.

Doc says that I am already beginning to dilate and as soon as Baby drops she is sure that my cervix will begin to efface, as well. Her guesstimate for the arrival of Baby? Within two weeks!!

Drop, Baby, drop!

Good luck, Christine! Those last few weeks are the worst, so I’ll be sending good thoughts your way. Can’t wait to hear about the little one’s arrival.
