Big Rigg? Maybe... HUGE Ryder!

We had and ultrasound this morning to determine just how big this boy is. He is weighing in at 8.9 lbs (95th%) and is as comfy-cozy as can be... meaning, I see no birthing of any baby today or tomorrow... or in the next couple of days, for that matter...(no more "progression" has been made)

Maybe next weekend. My Doc is on call then, I will be 39 weeks next Friday.. and she mentioned inducing. I will not know for certain until she calls me back or I see her again on Monday.

So until he decides to force his way into our midst, we will wait. Some of us (maybe just me) will be waiting with swollen fingers and some pain... but wait we shall.

Wow! He's HUGE! He's going to go straight into 6 months clothing at birth.

Wow! That is huge. Ty was 8lb 12 oz...two weeks late. I feel your swollen pain. I'm so excited for your family. :)

My second child measured 3cm bigger and was estimated to be 8.5 lbs at 36 weeks. I,too, was huge and so uncomfortable. I was induced at 39 weeks and she only weighed 7.9 lb and was by far my easiest birth. Ryder could surprise you, too! Can't wait to see who this baby looks like!
