Baby Update

My baby doctor does an ultrasound in the third trimester - so I got an ultrasound this week.  While everything looks healthy, he said the baby is already well over 6 pounds.  I still have 5 weeks left!  I asked if this meant I might go early.  He replied "No, I think you're going to have a 10 pound baby."  Perfect.  The ultrasound pictures show she already has chunky chipmunk cheeks, a fat little chin, and a huge belly.  He also advised me to take back all the newborn sized clothing I have as she'll never fit in them.  Carson was 8 lbs 11 oz, I was 9 lbs, and Karl was 8 lbs, so I knew she would be big, but let's hope she's closer to nine pounds and not ten.

What the crap!! Good luck with that one, that does not sound fun to push out, but she'll be so fun when she's here:) I think the outfit I gave her is 3 months...let's hope. Can't wait to see the little chipmunk!
