Holy EFF! How much bigger is this kid going to get in seven weeks?!? Not scheduling my c-section until mid-month.

Re: BSF is 4 lbs already, measuring two weeks ahead

  • Better start smoking to keep his size down!
  • Loading the player...
  • I would try scarfing and barfing first!
  • Half a pound a week is average.  So um, 7.5-8lbs.  Still comes out to be smaller than DS was!
  • Really Kori?? OK that makes me feel better. I have no idea how much they gain each week at the end, just starting to freak myself out, which I'm very good at.

    And yes, the S&B bucket HAS been collecting a bit of dust in the closet these past few months.....hmmm.....

  • you better be breaking that bucket out... Nora is becoming impressionable...she is going to need pointers!

    can you freaking believe you're having a BOY really really really soon.

    Every time I play with my aliens and  spaceship fabric.. I think of BSF.

  • Wow!  Is Nora getting excited?

  • Yeah, at least that's what they told me - I had GD so they were keeping an eye on DS's size every week.  They may have been just trying to shut me up, too...

  • My u/s on Friday said 5lbs. so that sounds just about right.  right?

  • Yeah DH got the nursery all painted and the new lighting fixture up this weekend when I was away, so it all seems VERY real now.

    Nora doesn't really get that her brother is coming in a matter of weeks. She did ask us the other night if he's driving to get here though. We about died.

    And I am coveting that robot/alien fabric, Pin. COVETING.

  • Wow, yay girl. Annabelle was about 4 lb at my 32 w u/s. She was only 7 lb born a couple weeks early. So exciting!
  • fat babies sleep better...grow baby grow!!!

    (my evidence----Taylor--10lbs3oz, slept through the night by 4 weeks or so.  Mitch--9lbs 3oz (and 2 weeks 6 days early)--slept through the night by 8 weeks.
