We had an ultrasound today...28 weeks. Looks like we are going to have a big baby. He is in the 99th percentile for size. His head and body are measuring 2 weeks ahead and his tummy is measuring FOUR weeks ahead! This lil guy may not be born so little afterall.
Of course the first question was if I passed my screening for gestational diabetes...and yes, I have. So no, don't have it. If I did have it, it might better explain this enormous baby in my belly. I asked the dr what all this means...is there any threat to the baby? He said no, some people just have big babies. Right now, he is 3 pounds 10 ounces. I already know I am having a c-section (since I have already had 2), so I know I won't have to deliver that watermelon!! :)
The tech was talking 9 or 10 pounds....the doctor was talking 10 PLUS pounds! Oh my gosh!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Kinda freaking out! I asked him what the largest newborn he's seen....and he said a 14 lb baby. Crazy!
You must be eating all the right foods for such a healthy eater already! Can't wait to hear what his weight will be when he arrives.
