NINE POUNDS!!

So, I went to the Doctor yesterday, for my monthly baby appointment. And as he was measuring my stomach, he told me I was measuring about 2 weeks ahead. So, they are going to do another ultrasound, just to make sure they got the dates right. I told him I always measured ahead with James Micheal, so we will see. And then my doctor told me he doesn't forsee the baby weighing any less than nine pounds!!! I just looked at him, and said, "What, are you kidding me." So now, I must give birth to a giant baby. It kind of makes sense though. It explains why I can barely breath, can barely put my socks on, and why I feel like he is going to explode out of my belly button at any second. Oh the joys of being pregnant. Thank Heaven for EPIDURALS!!!

I always feel bad for thinking to myself you look huge. Sorry it slipped out the other day, But at least he's a healthy boy. We had fun with James Michael today, we'll help anytime.

Ha ha ha! Those 9 pounders sneak up on you! LOL! We thought Adri was going to be the "shrimp" of our group...Or she could be three weeks early and 9 lbs 2 ozs. LOL! and I TOTALLY understand about not being able to move. Also, did you notice that with your third, every pain and ache is AMPLIFIED??! lol

Ugh......it's ironic that my smallest baby got to be cut out of my stomach....it was the larger two I had to push out. None were nine pounds, though.

Good Luck with that!
