False Alarm on the Whole Labor Thing

So we had a false alarm last week. No labor yet. While I’ve been having some “possible labor” signs, there has been nothing definite.

I’m 37 weeks and 2 days pregnant, measuring close to 38 weeks, and the ultrasound today revealed that LuLu is weighing in at 7 pounds, 13 ounces (yes, you read that correctly). While ultrasounds can be off by up to 2 pounds each way (I shudder to think of an almost-ten-pound LuLu Bean coming out of me), the weight itself doesn’t surprise me. I can feel every ounce. That’s for sure.

And I’m only dilated 1 cm. So we have a ways to go.

We didn’t get any good pictures of LuLu because she’s so big and in the exact position she should be in. I can pretty much say, however, that she has a Gallagher nose, like me and my mom, and I’m pretty sure she has Lohman legs.

We’ll keep you all updated.
