For the first time in 35.4 weeks, I got a decent view of Baby Colin! I was absolutely clear walking into the ultrasound room that I must see my child's face. My first ultrasound was at only 9 weeks, and kidney beans don't have features. The next was at 17 weeks and he hid his face. My last one was with a specialist and they could give a crap who he looks like. I needed to see my little Prince.
He looks a lot like his big sister, my beautiful little Kellan :)
As of now he's about 6 pounds, give or take 7 ounces. He's right on target with his length and in the 68% percentile in weight. Although we all know that OB predictions are a load of crap, he does seem to be slightly smaller then Kellan. Whew....
When is he coming? No one is sure, obviously. But the last two nights have been painful with an end result of Twinkle Toes head down and tickling my rib cage. He's jammed waaaay down there, so it's only going to be about two weeks. My placenta is a grade three, so I get NST's twice a week now (not following? Google it punk). Holy hell, I have no nursery still.... Off to clean the bassinett!
P.S. I hope celebrating the Fourth of July downriver doesn't blow chunks.
