My Baby is a MONSTER!!!

Well I went for my 32 week ultrasound this afternoon and they confirmed my suspicions. Gavin is HUGE, and I mean REALLY HUGE. He already weighs 5.7 lbs and is in the 94th percentile for size. You should have seen the size of this kid's head!!! It was so big the tech asked me if I had diabetes!!!! Which of course I don't, thankfully.

I noticed on the summary screen after the ultrasound that by all the averages of his size I was actually 35 wks and 1 day and my due date should be 4/21, which seems a lot more accurate to me but what do I know. So of course I am super happy waiting on the Dr. to come in and confirm my new due date. So I wait and wait and wait some more and he finally comes in and crushes my dreams!!! He REFUSES to change my due date!! He said that he wasn't going to change the due date to fit the ultrasound but that is exactly what he did with the 2nd ultrasound I got. So if that is the position he is taking I guess I am going with my original due date of 4/28.

He also told me I have some condition that means too much fluid. He said that there are several factors that could cause this none of which I have or it could be unknown which is the case 60% of the time. He said that he would always take too much fluid over too little but that this did put me in a higher risk category and for that, I would now need to come in EVERY FREAKING WEEK!!! Like I don't have enough going on all ready!!! Oh well, whatever keeps Gavin happy and healthy, I guess :-).
