37 Weeks ~ FULL TERM!

How your baby's growing:

Your baby is now considered "full term," even though your due date is three weeks away. If you go into labor now, his lungs will likely be mature enough to fully adjust to life outside the womb. (Some babies need a bit more time, though. So if you're planning to have a repeat c-section, for example, your practitioner will schedule it for no earlier than 39 weeks unless there's a medical reason to intervene earlier.)
Your baby weighs 6 1/3 pounds and measures a bit over 19 inches, head to heel (like a stalk of Swiss chard). Many babies have a full head of hair at birth, with locks from 1/2 inch to 1 1/2 inches long. But don't be surprised if your baby's hair isn't the same color as yours. Dark-haired couples are sometimes thrown for a loop when their children come out as blonds or redheads, and fair-haired couples have been surprised by Elvis look-alikes. And then, of course, some babies sport only peach fuzz.

Riley Update!

As of now I go to the doctor every week. UGH! And the appointments are almost an hour and a half! First I get an UltraSound. So they are always checking the size of the baby. As of Wednesday she weighed 6 pounds and 9 ounces. That could totally explain why I'm in more pain and feel like I'm carrying a bowling ball. After that they do a NST (non stress test). It is supposed to take 15 minutes. They are just looking at the heart rate. But if you lose the heart rate then you keep going until you get enough of a reading. Wednesday I was on the machine for 30 minutes. She just didn't want to cooperate. It looks like at rest she is 127 and they said it's pretty good. Then of course you have to have the regular check up with the doctor. This appointment I had to have the Group B Strep Test. Let me just tell you, they should really warn you about that test before they give it. I know it has to be done, but for the love of all things holy, a warning would have been nice! Now I just wait for the results!!!

We received gift cards at our showers. :)

My new HTC EVO has the Amazon Kindle on it. I downloaded a fee book to try it out and I LOVE IT!
