Just like last time, he was super cooperative (a good sign!) and stayed still for all of his measurements. The tech measured his head and chest circumferences. I knew she was going to say something about him having a big head because Cole had a big head. The nurse went on and on about how big Cole's head was when he was born. To me, it just looked proportional to his BIG body! :)
Anyway, the tech looked at me while she was measuring and asked if I passed my gestational diabetes test. I told her yes...why, is he big? She was like, um, yeah...he's a big boy! You're measuring around 10 days ahead. Then she got to his femur measurement and said, well, you're measuring about 2 weeks ahead. He weighs 3 pounds. That was the first time I was shocked! I said, omg, isn't he only supposed to be about 2 pounds right now. She said, yeah. Holy crap! He's already huge!!
So, God willing and the creek don't rise, Cass will be merciful on me and come a little bit early to spare me the agony of delivering a 10 pound baby. Cole was 2 weeks early, so Cass is more than welcome to come at 38 weeks, too...but NOT EARLIER! :) Listen to me, acting like I have a say so. Oh, and we got a second look just to make sure he was still a boy, and boy is he ever! There was no question really, but you know, since I was there, might as well ask, right? The tech said we might have a little exhibitionist on our hands. He was more than willing to show off the goods. His feet was almost over his head! lol
Beautiful little profile!
