Baby Benson, 39 weeks (really 38 weeks, 6 days) It won't be long now!

Hi all! Went this morning for our weekly check-up. We went back and had an ultra sounds 1st...Baby Benson is approximately 6lbs, 3 oz with a head FULL of hair...it looked like a blow dryer was blowing it in the ultra sound, that's a lot of hair! She told me that she felt like Baby Benson would get no bigger than 6lbs, 5 oz if that. I am in the 19th percentile while she said most run in the 50th percentile but said there was no need for me to be alarmed...they begin to become alarmed when you get down to the 10th percentile. Heart Beat was 146. His/her little face is plump...think he/she is gonna look just like his/her Daddy...has plump lips and the nose is Kevin's too I think (check out the ultra sound pic-just a face shot since we don't want to know the sex). She did check me and I have begun to dilate...can't remember if she said 1 or 2 cm but I was 70% effaced (sp). She really seems to think that I will have Baby Benson w/in the next week on my own but if not she will give me my options on Tuesday at my check up. When she checked me today, she said I am going to get things stirred up in there to make things progress so we will see. She said that head is WAY down which they've told me the past 2 times so that's a good thing. So...that's today's visit...we're gonna have a baby soon:-) So the next update may be an actual baby...if not, we will be very close:-) Until then, Take Care!

Sorry this update is so late this afternoon...just getting home from a much needed pedicure...they say that certain pressure points in your feet will help things progress along:-)
