At my last sonogram on 11/28, they estimated my little one at approximately 4 1/2 lbs. I'm assuming he'll be between 5 - 5 1/2 by the time he's born. I had my week 38 appointment yesterday and had actually lost 2 lbs. which they said was normal and a sign that I'm not too far off. They declined to tell me exactly what "not too far off" meant though, the ba$tards.

My mother-in-law claims that driving on bumpy roads helped my husband be born, but she didn't quite get it that roads, as well as shock systems in cars have drastically improved since 1978.
