Size update/ultrasound!

Just an update on the size of the baby! I'm 30 weeks, and baby is measuring 32 weeks. MD doesn't seem overly concerned - said the baby is on the "high end of the average scale." He is measuring 4 lbs 6 oz right now, and the abdominal circumference is in the 98th percentile. The doctor said he's fairly sure he'll be inducing me at 38 weeks. Oh yeah...and they checked all organs and such, checks for cleft palate (sp?), etc. Everything is perfect, heart rate is perfect, heart rate increases with movement like it should - so everything is healthy! WOOHOO! Almost there...I think I can, I think I can....lol.

Lisa - the room is semi-ready. Crib is up, room is painted...but no bedding or anything. Any my friend still has my changing table, so I should be getting that back soon. I wasn't gonna decorate until after my shower (June 13th) so I could see what I still need after that.

Blueeyed - Six weeks ago was the first time he was "weighed" and they said he was right around two pounds. 28 oz, I think.

Everyone else - thank you for the well wishes! I'm starting to get both excited and worn out. LOL. Eight more weeks...I can do anything for eight weeks, right? :-)
