About 20 days to go...

Doc says baby's got until Monday to flip back over or we start "discussing options". [Angst]

Too much amniotic fluid, not enough iron in my blood (no matter HOW many pills I take), and extreme back, hip, and groin pain...

Not to mention that Jen was in there a bit too long, and she was actually born ON her due date. (Dan was 13 days early and was heavier.)

So, I probably don't have 20-some days...I probably have more like a week or so to go.

I have to admit, I'm a bit nervous about my appointment Monday.

(edit, title)

Yea, Boon!

Oh, yeah...I forgot to post my other (sort of baby related) news.

I went to a bra store yesterday and actually got fitted for a nursing bra. A nice one. THAT FITS!

Okay, may not seem like a big deal to you, but the truth is, I've never strung a tape measure around my bust. I normally just go to Wal-mart, try bras on until I find one that seems to fit, and go home.

Well, I couldn't find one at Wal-mart. I couldn't find one in the size I normally buy ANYWHERE on the internet. Turns out, I had the size wrong. [Blushing]

Okay...back to work now. [Big Grin]

Do we already know if it's a boy or girl?

Yeah, going to trust the sonogram: boy.

Yes, it's Thomas Russell, and I've seen his penis several times now via sonogram. He's definitely a boy!

Oh yeah, I remember that feeling. Oh you mean they're not supposed to be that uncomfortable? OHHHHHH! [Wink]

My birthday was May 13th. [Smile]

And I was an insy 5 pounds 3, and a pretty easy birth - so maybe your baby will follow the pattern.

Posted by Boon (Member # 4646) on :

I have NO idea when this baby will be born, but I have a pretty good idea how much he'll weigh. My older two were within an ounce of each other, and Doc has used that to confirm ODD. I'm not gonna post the numbers though, because that would ruin all the fun! [Razz]

Should I edit the thread title again?

"Boon's Baby Pool, take your best shot!"?
