Well I hope everything falls together well for you. I'm sure it'll all work out!

Quoting Vivian [♥]:" I thought the same thing haha. I thought I was going to have a little baby because I was little. Nope! Lol"

She just doesn't........ feel big? If that makes any sense what so ever..... lol  

Quoting S+K=R [34 WEEKS!]:" She just doesn't........ feel big? If that makes any sense what so ever..... lol  "

I didn't think so either. And my doctors told me she would *maybe* be 7lbs.
I was 129lbs at 40 weeks. She was 8.11. For me that was huge. She popped my hips put of place! Now that I know I make chubby babies, I'm worried about this one, since he's a boy. They say your boys are bigger, who knows though!

Quoting S+K=R [34 WEEKS!]:" Oh no! Have you had a lot of complications so far this pregnancy? Or was it controllable?"

Other than a partial abruption diagnosed at 17 weeks and the HG for the first trimester, it has been a breeze. And the last month has been pretty easy, honestly. More emotionally hard than anything else as I've just worried about having a preemie. My OB and I knew to expect some issues at the end because of my Protein C Deficiency. It's a relief to have gotten this far. A true blessing, really.

I was 143 at my last appointment and I started at 115.   So maybe she will be super big! Who knows!

ya, who knows! I know girls who's stomachs got huuuuuuuuuuge and they had 5-6lb babies. No way to really tell. I'm hoping this baby will be at least 8lbs. My cousins baby's were 6 pounders and I didn't even know how to hold them   They were so tiny to me lol

35 weeks..thats also when she started checking for dilation.

Quoting Mrs.O!:" 35 weeks..thats also when she started checking for dilation."

so happy my drs don't do that

Quoting Vivian [♥]:" so happy my drs don't do that"

yeah, its sucks! and it's so painful I went to 4 appointments before I popped and each one hurt!!...

Quoting S+K=R [34 WEEKS!]:" How much did your LO end up weighing?"

He was born at 36 weeks and 5 days, at 4 lbs 15 oz. Even though, I gained like...30 pounds, lol.

Quoting Tiger Lily ♥:" He was born at 36 weeks and 5 days, at 4 lbs 15 oz. Even though, I gained like...30 pounds, lol."

That's how much I weighed when I was born! Full term too. My mom said I was a stress baby lol.

I'm hoping my motherly instinct kicks in after I have her..... I always get SO nervous when I hold newborns. I've only held three in my life lol  

Quoting Mrs.O!:" 35 weeks..thats also when she started checking for dilation."

I'm not sure if my Dr will be checking for dilation... He hasn't mentioned anything about it. I'm assuming not. He just said I have my GBS at my next appointment.

All my friends kids I was weird holding them. I had to hold my best friend's son on a pillow until he was like 5 mos old lol
