{ Week 37}

CONGRATULATIONS!  You have made it to full term!!  We can safely have you any day now without worrying about your development.

 

I have been looking forward to this week’s appointment for a long time.  This week I got to see my actual OB so they could measure you and get a guestimate on your weight.  When we see you on an ultrasound now its almost hard to tell what is what because you are so big so I really don’t know what I am looking for.  There are no more adorable profiles or anything like that since your big ol’ noggin fills up the whole screen! 

Your measurements came back pretty much right on track for your age.  Your head was the size it needed to be to the day, your belly was a week behind and your femur measured a week ahead!  When she measured your leg she commented that you were long for your age!  Hopefully that means you will be on a path to be a tall boy!  Overall you came back weighing approximately 6 pounds 8 ounces, plus or a minus a pound!!  Wowza!!!  You are right on track as far as your weight goes for your age OR if you weigh on the heavier side and are a pound heavier you are going to be a big boy…poor mommy!
