OK. I’ve hit the “beached whale” part of this exercise. And even after the ultrasound on the 6th, they won’t move up my due date. The tech said, after some computer measures, that he’s about 5 ½ pounds so far. And with a 1/3 to ½ pound growth average a week, I will probably have at least an 8 pound baby. Ah crap! It also didn’t help that while she was measuring away on the screen, she says, “Hey, he’s got a big head.” Now there’s something a pregnant woman wants to hear, right?!! OH!! Where the blazes is that straight jacket??? I’m gonna be begging to be induced if I go on too much longer. I’m somewhat OK once I get moving but to get moving. And then it all goes out the window if the baby starts to move around. OH!!! We can now physically SEE him move inside me!! Very FREAKY!! Like watching the ocean waves running over my belly. Oh and the belly button is no longer… we have hit bottom!! I just want to survive this with a few brain cells left.
