36 weeks
Today I went for my usual appointment and neither of the doctors was in the office so I told the nurse that we were supposed to schedule my induction and my ultrasound. I told her that Dr. Bullaro had said we'd do the ultrasound 2 days before the induction to check his size and position. But when she measured my belly with the measuring tape, she said I am a sound 40 weeks! My belly is 4 weeks ahead of itself - no wonder I feel so big!! So, she wanted to do an ultrasound now to see how big he is and see why I'm measuring so far ahead. It was a fun surprise!! I got to see Sawyer - they confirmed that he is still a boy :) - and he was so cute. He kept opening and closing his mouth and moving his hand up by his face. Although the profile is remarkably similar to his 20 week one, it is definitely more defined. I know this doesn't do it justice, but seeing him move around on that monitor was just crazy and beautiful. Anyway, she said he is measuring at 38 weeks, so only 2 ahead, but that I also have extra fluid making my belly pop out like that. Nice huh? I asked why that happens and she said, life. God gives me a big baby AND some extra fluid just to make sure I'm really uncomfortable ;-) As of right now, she etimates his weight at 7lb 13 oz!!! She is going to pass on this information to the doctor tomorrow and I should be getting a call with my induction appointment. Yippee!
