I have gained one pound in two weeks.
Thats a total of 33 pounds!
I am almost 37 weeks ( tomorrow is the day that makes me " term. " )
My belly is measuring at 41 weeks. Holy Cow!
My C-Section has been rescheduled for July 8th.
YAY!
We will go in around 2:30, and our surgery will be at 5pm.
There is a light at the end of the tunnel, and I am relieved.
Let the count down begin!

Your baby is now considered "full term," even though your due date is three weeks away. If you go into labor now, his lungs will likely be mature enough to fully adjust to life outside the womb. (Some babies need a bit more time, though. So if you're planning to have a repeat c-section, for example, your practitioner will schedule it for no earlier than 39 weeks unless there's a medical reason to intervene earlier.)
Your baby weighs 6 1/3 pounds and measures a bit over 19 inches, head to heel (like a stalk of Swiss chard). Many babies have a full head of hair at birth, with locks from 1/2 inch to 1 1/2 inches long. But don't be surprised if your baby's hair isn't the same color as yours. Dark-haired couples are sometimes thrown for a loop when their children come out as blonds or redheads, and fair-haired couples have been surprised by Elvis look-alikes. And then, of course, some babies sport only peach fuzz.
