Hormones
Whatever you do...don't take a picture of yourself right before you are ready to deliver a baby. It's been a tradition that I have Steve take a picture around my due date just to laugh at :-) and put in the baby book. Well...I had Steve take a picture tonight and when I saw it, I literally went into tears. Why didn't anyone tell me that I looked THAT much bigger than I did with Jake and Stevie. I'm now really scared that this baby is going to be hard to deliver. Not to mention how much weight I need to lose. Unfortunately my husband said the wrong thing too, even though I know he didn't mean it to come out this way. But he said to me after I screamed..."I didn't know I looked so big!." "Well...have you looked in the mirror lately?" I just need to keep telling myself, it's all about having a healthy baby.
So my bet for this child is definitely over 6 lbs, a boy, and born tomorrow, August 22. I'm cheating, I know, because I am being induced tomorrow. Wish me luck!
