My Handsome (BIG) Prince |
The Nursery (95% finished) |
We are just waiting for the glider and a new light! |
A 7 pound baby is in that large belly! OMG!!! |
According to the website thebump.com, at 36 weeks pregnant, the baby should be the size of a honeydew. According to my ultra sound today, Mason weighs 7 pounds!!! That is either the biggest honeydew ever, or their scale is wrong! My little man is HUGE and I still have 4 weeks until full term! Mason could potentially be a 9 pounder if I make it the remaining 27 days. According to my doctor, he has not fully dropped and I am not dilated at all. She feels that he will most likely not come this week. On a positive note, he is healthy and looks gorgeous! I still tear up every time I get an ultra sound and I get to see my little angel. The ultra sound tech said that Mason has a lot of hair. So much for that old wives' tale of hair on the baby's head means that mom has a lot of heartburn. I have been blessed to not have to experience that so far throughout this pregnancy. I am experiencing swollen feet and ankles. My once thin, bony ankles are now retaining tons of water. I also have Fred Flinstone feet! I am so grateful for my wonderful husband though! He fills buckets of warm water and epsom salt and I can sit on the couch and soak my feet. I was orginally sitting on the edge of the bathtub for 30 minutes, but that was really hurting my back. Marc surprised me the other night while I was catching up on my favorite shows. Now I get to relax, watch TV, and soak my swollen limbs in comfort! My next appointment is set for Monday, so I am hoping he has not grown too much by then:-)
