4 Weeks to Go!

We had another ultrasound and appointment yesterday for Miss Leah. She continues to measure about two weeks ahead, and ultrasound measurements have her at just under 7.5 pounds. I was 7 lbs, 3 oz when I was born, so it's crazy to think that she has already surpassed that with 4 weeks to go! Once again, they are projecting another 9 pounder. I wish I could say we (Andrew, my doc, and I) were all shocked by the news, but it's what we've come to expect with our babies. The amount of amniotic fluid rose a little bit since the last ultrasound, but still nothing to worry about at this point. The extra fluid does make for a very active baby as it creates an easier environment to maneuver rolls and somersaults. She moves a lot, and was going crazy during the appointment, so I have a feeling she's going to be a little firecracker. She performed well on her movement, breathing, and heartbeat tests, so everything else looks good. She was being shy, so unfortunately we didn't get any pictures of her face. As long as I can keep my sugars in check, I won't have anymore ultrasounds, and I'll only have to do the normal weekly appointments. We have an induction date set for April 7th, so that will be the big day unless she decides to come early. I'm not holding my breath as it seems all of our kids are very content staying in Mama's belly and hanging out. So, that's it...now we wait...
