Here are the facts:
My due date is officially September 13th. (He offered to shift it since it's a Friday the 13th, which tells you how scientific they are...)
Totally normal pregnancy until about 30 weeks when they discovered I had low iron, so I've been taking an iron supplement with dinner in addition to my prenatal. I'll find out Monday if it's working.
Luca was born at 38 weeks.
She is already head down, but no real Braxton Hicks yet. Not all women get them, but I did with Luca.
My OB said last time that 80% of women go between 10 days before and 10 days after their due date.
The Crib:
We ordered it in late June. At the time they gave us an estimated arrival date of the last week in July/first week in August. When I called first week in August they called the manufacturer and the cribs hadn't been shipped to the US yet, bumping back the expected date to the middle/end of August. The store called this last Monday and said our crib should be arriving in the states in the middle of August, making the new store arrival time frame the last week in August/first week in September. The manufacturer (Munire) is known for shipping things whenever they feel like it, but the store is being good about calling them for updates and keeping me updated.
Here's what You do:
Leave a comment (with your name) saying three things--
1: The date she'll be born
2: The general time of day--morning, afternoon or night (We'll call 5am-1pm morning, 1pm-9pm afternoon, and 9pm-5am night)
3: Whether or not the crib will be here
I will keep updating as people tell me their predictions!
And, as promised, 9 month bump pictures. I can't see the week number at all anymore, have to pull my shirt out so I can get an idea, and have Josh tell me how to adjust. Man she just keeps growing! We don't know her specifics, but on average babies this far along are about 6 pounds and 18-20 inches. From here on she'll put on about a half a pound a week! And I will continue to look more and more like I've stuffed a basketball under my shirt =)
Keep getting me your birthday predictions, there will be a prize for the closest guesser! Good Luck!
