Had an u/s today

My doctors tried to pull the "Let's see how much baby weighs" card. Ds#1 was 10 lb, 2 oz, so all along they've been saying, "Well, we'll do the VBAC, but if it's another 10 pounder..." Blah, blah, blah. I went along with it because I was very interested in making sure that he was well-positioned. After last time (when we found out ds#2 was breech after I went into labor), I wanted to know for sure, not just a guess based on the doctor palpating my abdomen.

Anyway, no monster baby this time!! I'm 37 wks 5 days, and his estimated weight was 3100 to 3300 grams. 3300 grams = 7 lbs 4 oz. So, even with the inaccuracy of u/s estimates at this point, there is no way they can get on my case about this one! :)

Oh, and he still has a penis. Drat!!
