We are now officially at full term. When I went in for my appointment the doctor is still concerned about how small he is. She went ahead and had me do another ultrasound to make sure everything is ok. Since he is bigger, the pictures didn't turn out very good, but you can see his face pretty good. He is looking directly at you. It looks like he has chubby little cheeks. :) How cute. But the doctor said that he is only about 5 1/2 pounds, give or take a little. So he is really small and his measurements are small as well. Sometimes towards the end of a pregnancy the baby will not grow anymore because there isn't enough room, which could be his case. The doctor will know what is going on when I go in next week. Sometimes they have to take the baby early if there isn't enough room to grow. We shall see. As of Friday, May 9th, I am 1cm dilated and my doctor started to strip the membrane to make things move along. So we shall see when he decides to arrive! :) We are really hopeful that he will come a week early so my brother will get to see him!
