Went to the doctor yesterday and it was a slightly depressing appointment. :) He measured her head, belly, & femur and gave us an estimated fetal weight. She's weighing in at 4.8 lbs. His comment when he was trying to measure the head was, "big head." Just what every pregnant lady wants to hear, right? I shot Tony a glare after this comment -- we all know he's the one responsible if she has a big head. Just determined to make my job more difficult, I guess. :)
The measurements also gave us a different due date than we have been planning on. The ultrasound machine calculated it at April 13th, a week ahead of schedule. At which point Tony shot a glare back at me... (His exams begin the 14th and go until the 19th) Oops! So... the doctor didn't officially change our due date, he just said that she is a good sized baby already -- in the 75th percentile.
So the question is... Do we pray that she comes on the original due date so Tony will have his exams out of the way. Or... Do we pray that she comes on the early due date so Rachel doesn't have to deliver such a big baby.
Sigh... :)
