27 weeks

We went to the doctor for our normal 27 week check-up as well as a ultrasound to check on why I am measuring big. Also added on to that was my sugar test to check for gestational diabetes(they check everyone for this). We haven't found out those results yet though.

• Baby weighs 2 lbs 14 oz, which is the 95 percentile. I asked the doctor to guess what that would mean for delivery weight and he said 9lbs, then added "I don't think we are looking at having a 10 lb baby", OH good, glad that was cleared up! So looks like I don't need any newborn clothes.
  
• Amniotic fluid level is really high, >97%, the doctor says its almost always means nothing but there is always a chance of there being a problem, so they are going to be monitoring us really close. I will have NST (nonstress test-a monitor for baby's heartbeat) done every week.
• Hemoglobin level is 10.4, which is low, so I will start taking Iron every day as well. My co-workers were guessing this past week that I was anemic because I was more pale than usual(yes apparently you can be more pale than my usual!)
• I am now only measuring 2 weeks ahead as far as my belly size. My last doctors appointment I was measuring 3 weeks ahead.
• My weight gain was right on target this time too. I was worried that I was going to continue with the weight gain that I had last time, which if I stayed on that curve I would be the size of a bus by delivery.
• We got a really cute picture of Baby Caleb's face during the ultrasound. When we get a chance we will scan it so you can see it! Josh thinks that he looks like him already, I think he just looks like the cutest little baby!
