Another big one is cookin'

Brooklyn was born at 41 weeks weighing 8 lbs. 7 oz.

Brielle was born at 40 weeks weighing 9 lbs. 3 oz.

As of today, this one is measuring 6 1/2 lbs and my due date has been moved around from May 10th to the 17th now to the 4th. So roughly, I have about a month left obviously give or take a little. Who knows how big he will actually end up being or what his "real" due date will be BUT, all I know is some people give birth to babies this size. Not me. Looks like I have another big one cooking away!

I don't love being pregnant with big babies because it just makes you that much bigger and that much more squished & uncomfortable, but I don't mind having bigger babies once they are born because I feel like they are sturdier you know?

It'll be interesting to see how much he ends up being.

I like the use of the word "sturdier"....haha. I know what you mean, nobody wants a shrimp baby like Eli! Poor thing. I just know he's going to hit a growth spurt one day!

I agree...not fun to carry that around or push that out, but it sure is comforting to have a big baby! I can't wait to see this kid...he is going to be so cute, and I can't believe how soon he will be here!!

We are both members of the "big baby club." I bet you are so excited to meet your little boy!

Hi Kim! I didn't realize how close we are with our big bellies. I have six more weeks to go. My doc scheduled an induction for the 26th of May. (Unless of course I go into labor on my own which would be a big surprise!) And maybe it's just that it's been awhile, but I am more than anxious to be DONE. Good luck with that cute boy! :)
