Big Baby and Snow Storm....

This was a fairly uneventful week! I went to the doctor on Monday and am still dilated and effaced about the same as last week. Dr. Clancy did an ultra sound to measure the estimated weight of the baby. Her estimate as of 37 weeks 4 days was 7.5 LBS!! That means, if I carry the baby to term and it gains 1/2 lb. a week, it could be close to a NINE POUND BABY!! I realize that technology is not perfect, but it does scare me to have a big baby. I go back Monday unless the baby decides to come this weekend!

We are also in the midst of a snow storm here in St. Louis. The good news is that I don't have school tomorrow! We are supposed to get anywhere from 6-10 inches of snow tonight. It would be a wild ride to the hospital if we have to make that trek!
