If you hadn't noticed from the pictures of me, I'm pretty big at this point. My belly has swollen up much more quickly, and Hunter started those giant roll movements that make your entire belly do the wave much earlier than during my pregnancy with Emily. We've had several sonograms at this point because he is measuring bigger. At 29 weeks, we had a scare, but all turned out to be okay (GLORY TO GOD!!!), and we are expected to have a healthy baby boy. His head is still measuring big-- measured 38 weeks today-- but everything looks good, and we're sticking with the original due date.
Let's do the math together though.....just in case you're not thinking into this as much as I am: At 29 weeks and again at 30 weeks, his head measured that of a typical 34 week baby. Today at 34 weeks, his head measured that of a 38 week baby. So.....when I go back at 38 weeks for another sonogram, will his head measure 42 weeks?!?! I'm not even sure if that's possible, but you see the pattern here. I'm a bit concerned about pushing this baby out!! :0)
I realize there are lots of you out there who have delivered big-headed babies. Just more room for a really smart brain, right?! :0) I'm not really worried and know that everything will work out just fine. We're so very thankful for how well everything has gone.
Here are some shots of my ever-growing belly:

You are so precious and look wonderful!!!! I am glad all is great...can't wait to see this baby!! :)
Collin is measuring big as well. I will be 39 wks tomorrow (Friday), and his head is measuring around 41-42 wks, so I guess it is possible. His estimated weight last week was 7 lb 12 oz. If he stays around that size, I may get to try to have him naturally. If he gets much bigger, my dr is planning a c-section. I have another sonogram on Tuesday just for growth to see how things are going to go.
You are looking great! I took a pic of myself the other day to post, and when I looked at it, I thought no way!! :O) I really hope this last week flies by! I think about you all the time!! Keep hanging in there!! I am so excited Hunter and Collin will around the same age!!
Angie, you have to be the cutest pregnant woman!! You look wonderful! I reallt LOVE the pic of you and Emily!!
You look adorable!!!!! Grace's head was HUGE. It measured big also, and I won't lie- it was hard getting her out, but you can do it! I'm sure the 2nd one is totally different anyway!!! :)
