Getting Closer

Well, I went to the doctor's today. They did another ultrasound to make sure Eliana is doing well. The technician said that the baby is around 6lbs, 6oz. So if she's right, then this might be a big baby!! I was expecting her to be bigger than Sammie but this big already......Lord, help me!
(ha ha)

I've also been contracting pretty hard the past two nights, which according to Jenni (my God-sent nurse friend), is normal. I'm just barely dilated, apparently not enough to even measure at this point. I think another couple weeks would be good, then I'll be about a week and a half early.

So.....so far everything seems to be going really well. But, I AM 38 inches around!!!! I hope I never see that except when I'm pregnant.

How many weeks early is it safe to have a baby? 36? How many are you now?

38 is most likely alot for a skinny girl like you but is not so unreasonable for some of us.

24 or 26 weeks the fetus is viable
34 weeks, yet premature, still high percentage of survival
I'm 36 weeks
I had Sammie at 37 weeks and she was just fine.
