The Latest

My pregnancy is going by so fast! I can't even believe that I will be a Mom soon. Today I had a doctor's appointment and she did an ultrasound because she thought I had placenta previa. Luckily, the placenta has moved out of the way and the baby is head down and ready to go! According to the ultrasound he is measuring a week ahead of schedule, but his head is measuring 4 weeks ahead! The doctor said it looked fine, but Holy Cow! He has a head the size of most newborns right now! My family is known for their big heads, but I was somehow hoping that he would take after his dad on this one. Hopefully the measurements are not too accurate! Otherwise, everything is progress right on. Next week is my last week of work and I am really looking forward to sleeping in and not having a schedule. I just have to get through 6 more days of work!

Yea! I'm glad it's going good, but holy head!! Maybe, for your sake, it won't be accurate! Pray!! :)

I completly understand about the whole head thing! Jonah's head didn't even fit the hospital caps when he was born and so far baby #2is looking exactly the same!

I'm hoping the doctor is wrong! I'm so happy that everything looks good and baby is cooperating.

Ha! Savannah's head was so big they thought they would have to give me a c-section to get her out. Turned out I didn't need one, but she sure had/has a big head.

Good luck! Hey it could be worse you could have the rest of the baby be huge too! Sorry that you're feeling anxious about it all. You're going to do great!
