I had a dr. appointment and ultrasound this morning. We are certain that there will be a baby boy delivered by Friday! I am already 6-7 cm. dilated! Wow! Apparently my body thinks that it is in active labor, however, I am still not having any real contractions. Just a bit of tightening, especially in the evening after being on my feet most of the day. I'm all for this painless labor. : ) By Friday I should have definitely gone into labor or at least dilated to 7 at which point it is not safe to send me home - since Trey and I do not prefer to deliver the baby ourselves on the side of the road! So if there is no baby by Friday morning, they will go ahead and admit me to the hospital.
As for the ultrasound... he was estimated to be a whopping 9 lb. 3 oz! Yikes! However, the ultrasounds tend to err on the large size and the bigger the baby the more unreliable the estimate. It could be off by more than a pound at his size.
So that's the deal. Please keep our family in your prayers: That Little Bit will be born healthy and that the delivery will be easy but not too fast!! And also for sweet Alicia - that she will do well in making the adjustment of becoming a big sister.
