June 30

The past week has been miserable! I feel like my tummy has tripled in size! I had to move my seat back in my car a notch to make room for me and Jack, and we had to ask for a table rather than a booth at Outback, so depressing. And my wonderful husband has now taken on the role of putting on my shoes. Then we went to our doctors appointment yesterday and my concerns were confirmed! I haven't gained any weight, thank goodness...but my tummy measured 36.5 when only a week ago I measured 32.5! Dr. McIlveen flagged my file, concerned that Jack is going to be too big, so next week I will have growth scan to check his size and then we may have to schedule a c-section...bummer. I think it is weird that I haven't gained any weight in about 3 months but Jack is packing on the pounds, literally!! Before he measured me I had asked him about scheduling an induction so we will make sure my mom and sisters are here, and he said that his only concern for doing that is typically caucasian male babies tend to have the latest lung development, and even when full term it often takes them a little longer to take their first breath when delivered, he said they call them, "whimpy white boys" in the delivery room..hehe! So anyway I guess we will know more on the 14th!
