36 Weeks and Baby Update

Belly Pic:

Here I am at 36 1/2 weeks. I'm really wondering why I ever thought it was a good idea to post pregnancy pictures on here where the whole world can see my massiveness.

Baby Update:
She's a shrimp.

Since the fundal height has been measuring exponentially smaller than is normal (I measured about a month behind at my 34 week appointment.), the doctor had me get another ultrasound to make sure everything's okay.

Everything looked good during the ultrasound; our baby's just tiny.

As of 35 weeks:
  • Overall she's in the 14th percentile.
  • Her abdominal circumference is in less than the 2nd percentile.
  • She weighs 4 lbs. 6 oz. (Average weight at this point it about 5 lbs. 4 oz.)
It's hard to believe our bambina could be here this month and that she'll definitely be here early next month!

On another note:
We're not getting any closer to coming up with a name for our little one. Any suggestions? PLEASE!

Massiveness? I don't see anything massive in that picture! You look great! How exciting to be in the last few weeks! Can't wait to see what she looks like!

I'm so glad I'm not the only one that has a shrimp baby! :) They can be best friends and be little shrimps together! You look so great by the way! Your belly is so cute and it looks like that is the only place the weight is going, so that's great! And I'm glad everything looks good with the baby! It will be nice to push out a smaller baby right! :)
