Well, I had the growth scan on baby boy today. It turns out he already weighs about 5 lbs. 3 oz., which if anyone knows-his weight would not keep him from going home if he was born now (though his under developed lungs probably would.). He should technically weigh around 3 lbs. 4 oz. this week. So we’re two pounds ahead. His torso and legs are measuring around 34.5 weeks, which is two and a half weeks ahead of schedule. I’ve already scheduled an amniocentesis (inserting a needle into my uterus, withdrawing amniotic fluid, and testing it to see if his lungs are developed) for April the 6th. That means I hope to induce around the 12th or 13th of April. It’s hard to believe that I’m now under 50 days until he’s born-most likely. I can’t wait to see him. And so, here’s a picture of my big ol’ belly-and this is the 4D ultrasound picture of his beautiful little face-hint, it’s on the left of the picture, and the nose is the easiest to pick out. Here’s a picture of me when I was about 37 and a half weeks along with Misha (so 5.5 weeks head of where I am right now) to compare the size of these two. Hope everyone’s good!
Misha pregnancy-37 weeks, 1 day
Baby boy-31 weeks, 5 days
See his beautiful little face on the left side?

VERY CUTE!! Can't wait to see pictures of him once he's born!! You look marvelous, my darling :) I hope to look as cute when I get pregnant!
Hayley he is so handsome...I hope and pray everything goes smoothly and he arrives in perfect health. Love you.
Oh my goodness that is just the cutest thing I think I've seen in a long time!! My mom once told me that babies usually get smaller after the first but i don't believe that! Mine have all gotten bigger. What's the deal with that!!
Very beautiful!
