So we have made it to 37 weeks. The official word is that if he arrives at any time from here out he will be fully developed and should be healthy. Our visit was lengthy due to our Doc having to head out the back door and across to the hospital to deliver two babies while we waited. After a long wait in an insanely overheated exam room, the nurse practitioner paid us a visit.
Ben is measuring 36 weeks even though we're 37, so the fact that his daddy was 9lbs and 13 oz and 23 inches long may not be a factor...he may be a little guy. I really hope that he is little, because I'm enormous and don't want to have people look at me and say, "No Wonder..."
We don't go back until next Thursday...Jenny can only schedule OB appointments on Tuesdays and Thursdays since she goes to Physical Therapy every Monday/Wednesday/Friday. Next Tuesday, when we should be going, the Princess has a haircut and color scheduled. And Lord knows, we don't mess with THAT.
She has a shower tomorrow at work, and then next Friday (the 29th) will be her last day to work, if all goes as planned.
More developments as they happen...

that is right! you don't want to mess with those hair appointment!!!! (don't you forget it!) :-)
Todd the word enormous never comes to my mind when I think of you...tall yes but enormous never! Glad to hear things are going good!
I agree! Tall yes, enormous no. :)
And hey, Jenny has to get the hair done now. Once Benjamin arrives, it will be awhile before she can get back! :)
Best of luck to you all! Get as much sleep as you can now! I know that people always say that, but trust me... it's so true that you will not sleep hardly at all the first few weeks. We still aren't very well!
Hey, don't knock the hair appointment. I can't think of anything more important for Jenny to do before she has that baby! She needs to be at her best game!
hehehe... yes... you don't mess with the hair! Especially these days!
