Baby Update

I had the first of my weekly doctors appointment today. We started with an ultrasound...I had the same tech and it took all her willpower not to spill the beans. :) It was funny she kept catching herself and trying to choose her words carefully. Everything looked good and she said the baby was looking to be about a week ahead and 5 lbs...give or take a pound...LOL I love how they say that. I have plenty of fluid for baby and it was fun to see the cheeks on this kid. I then went for my Non-stress Test and baby was doing acrobats and would not stop. This child is SUPER active, much more than my other kids......I'm a little worried. I was hoping for a calm child after Ady and Bennett. My doctor then measured me and said I was measuring 35 weeks and said that was about right. I tried to argue with him and said...."No, I'm only about 32, 33 weeks." He said I was 33 almost 34 weeks, but I could've sworn he was wrong. So it was nice to get on my blog and see that my counter says 32 weeks 6 days. Hmmm...weird. I have been measuring much bigger this time around so I am curious to see when this kiddo comes. I am soooo not ready, I want to have 7 more weeks to go, not 5. :) LOL
So my next appointment is next Thursday, another 2 plus hours. Fun! I'm just hoping this baby doesn't arrive until AFTER Thanksgiving.
I do have a "theory" though. So far all of our kids are born in odd months, so it'll be funny if this one comes in November not December. They also come (when not induced) on a Sunday....so I told Davis to plan on the 28th of November. We'll see if that happens or not. I guess I better start packing my bags. I also told Ady she could pick out a take home outfit...since she is convinced it's a girl. Maybe I'll let Matt choose a boy outfit. I figure I can always give the one we don't use as a gift.
I'll update in a week....oh I am not dialated at all..which surprises me since my contractions have been pretty insane lately...I was certain I was dialated a little.
