week 37 - cooked

baby's at full term now. we have done good, and i feel really thankful that it has been a rather smooth pregnancy up till now.
had a slight scare when the sonographer told us today that baby was only measuring 2.4kg, which was the same weight that the doc estimated 2 weeks ago. felt that it couldn't be so as the belly has been growing bigger. doc's subsequent scan showed baby to be between 2.8 and 3.1kg, depending on how the measurements were taken. that was a relief, especially since i somehow managed to put on close to 2kg in 2 weeks! gah.
oh well, so long as baby is healthy and doing fine, i will bear with the dugong tag until i pop. one perk of baby getting bigger is that i get free massages from within when baby moves her arms and legs along my tummy. she gets scolded sometimes when it gets too violent though. :D
we will be going for weekly doc appointments from now on ... more time outside the office and more peeks at baby. yay!
we are going to go for long walks from now till baby pops ... hopefully it will help shorten the whole labour process!
