Ok so I just got back from the doctors and im at work again. They said everything looks fine! Yay! Lol .. They said he weighs 5 lbs 4oz! Im 35 ½ weeks, do you think that’s normal? The lady said it was. I asked how accurate the ultrasounds were and she said that they are normally always within 7-14 days.. And she said that I measure right within my correct range which means I am either 7 days ahead or behind my due date (34 1/2 – 36 ½ weeks) she also said that his head was very ‘deep in the pelvis’ she said she couldn’t get me a good picture or anything because she couldn’t get the face because it was deep in the pelvis. Do you think this means hes dropped or just that hes down low, and maybe their supposed to be real deep in the pelvis at this point? I didn’t get to see my regular doctor to ask all these questions! Lol anyhow im happy she said everything looks great*

My moms hopin he will be around 7-7 1/2 lbs, she thinks thats a good weight** so at 36 weeks josh was 6, 1oz? Mine will probably be just a little under that at 36 weeks because im 36 in 4 days so he probably will only be around not even quite 5 1/2 by then then. But I hear they gain 2-21/2 from 36-40 weeks? (average)

Sounds good kari. I only weighed 5lbs 8 oz when I was born, but I was one month premature. So, I think the weight sounds good.
Too bad you couldn't get a picture, but he was hiding. Must be shy!
