The "Weigh In"
Dum, dum, dum! At the time of this post baby girl is/should be 30 weeks and 2 days. Well, her head circumference, chest circumference, abd girth and leg length all consistently measured 32 weeks and 3 days. Not only that but they have her weight estimated at 4 lbs. 5 oz. I am not sure if I will even attempt a VBAC if I should go into spontaneous labor, or if I will just proceed with the scheduled c-section and not run the risk of a uterine rupture. And since the baby has measured big through all of my sonograms, how early will she schedule a c-section? Also, Val or Hillary maybe you know, if the baby is measuring big does that mean other anatomical areas are developing at the same rate (i.e. lungs)? I am sorry to ramble about all of this, I know most of the time everything works out just fine in the end, I am talking to myself and trying to anticipate what will happen. Because, you know, pregnancies, babies and children are such predictable aspects of life that are easliy anticipated. Ha, ha, ha!

Dang, I guessed right!!!! On the weight anyway! Love, A. Vonnie
You know, I feel like I should know the answer to that. My instinct says that just because baby is big does not mean that lungs are developing any quicker. I think that follows a pretty set time line. But, you've peaked my interest...now I must investigate!
I know with gestational diabetic babies they can be giagantic but still have crappy lungs. I don't know if this applies to everyone else though....
