38+ weeks



Getting down to the wire! At my appointment on Friday I was dilated 2 cm. The doctor said, "See you next week--unless I see you before then!"

People keep telling me I'm not very big. I'm ten pounds lighter than I was with Kate. (And Kate was only 6 lbs 9 oz.) I promise I really am eating.

This has been a pretty easy pregnancy. I haven't had nearly as much heartburn as I did with Kate (yay!). Apparently the old wives tales associate heartburn and hair, so maybe he'll be completely bald. He also seems less active than Kate was. Maybe he'll be a good sleeper. A small, bald baby who sleeps a lot. We'll see!
