Well, turns out my big belly is just a big belly and this little dude is a normal size bebe. We had the ultrasound done and he's in the 50 percentile in most all categorizes and weighing about 6 lbs. He's so in the normal range it's hard to believe since this whole pregnancy has seemed so not normal. So no big bebe..pheww! So this guy is tracking at weighing 7.5lbs at 40 weeks. He still has not dropped at all...he's still sitting high under my ribcage....head facing down and looking up. So at this point I'm getting some pretty strong kicks under my rib cage. My cervix is still closed and long...so no signs that he's ready to enter this world. My pre-eclapsia screen came back mostly normal. My urine proteins are slightly elevated but not high enough to worry about but an explanation for the swelling. I just need to watch my blood pressure and so far that is ok too. It's slightly elevated for me but still in the normal range since my baseline blood pressure is very low.
Baby Rill continues to be spoiled! He attended his third baby shower! My co-workers were so sweet to give lots of baby love. We got the much needed pack n play...or play prison as Karen called it. Karen even got us an upgraded version with all the bells and whistles. Thanks so much Kern and gang!
