Who’s it gonna be?

Wednesday, August 15th, 2007

So what do you all think???
Andrew Scott Jr. or Natalie Grace, how much will the baby weigh, how long will the baby be, what date or time will the baby come? Wanna play and answer?


Go check out my baby pool! (Click Here or go to the main page)
Reminder: My due date is December 4th
(to help more, check out belly shots below and also the info below):

Myself (Jessica)- born on a Monday at 6:27am, 6 lbs 13 oz, 20 inches (was LATE)
Andrew- born on a Saturday at 10:21pm, 7 lbs 8.5oz, 21 inches (was ON TIME)
Mary Elizabeth- born on a Friday at 9:19am, 7 lbs 0oz, 19.25 inches (was 2 weeks EARLY – due to circumstances)

Anyway, had an appointment Tuesday and all went well. With some reprimanding to the belly, the sono tech was able to measure the rest of what she needed to. Everything is on target and the baby looks great…. still active as ever. Andy is feeling him/her at least once a day and I’m feeling him/her all day long! LOL. Here’s our little cutie who kept rubbing its forehead and punching and kicking around in there during the ultrasound:


Meanwhile, my belly is getting bigger and bigger. Quite a difference from the last pregnancy as the stomach took a while to grow but they say it seems faster with the 2nd…. well I guess I’m proof of that. CLICK HERE for my current belly progression

And if you’re up for comparing- you can check out the last pregnancy’s belly progression by Clicking Here.

As for how I’m feeling, I really can’t complain. Pregnancy was easy on me last time around and is once again. Skipped out on morning sickness, don’t have any major pains or gripes. So I feel blessed about that. I hope it continues that way. At my appointment – once again, we discussed the option of VBAC, and it will depend on a lot but hopefully things will line up so I get to try to skip out on the c-section this time. Hopefully the baby will be in the right position, not be too huge, everything will be ok with me and things like that. My dr didn’t do the c-section last time, so I now have the task of getting the op-report from the OB that did it. (It was done by a different OB because after 30 or 32 weeks I was sent down to see an OB from another hospital to have ME at a place with a more equipped ICU etc.). She just wants to make sure everything went ok that time, which I believe it had.

So that’s that. Hopefully a lot of you will participate in the baby pool. Should be fun to see who gets closest!

What’s going on?

OK quick update:

Surgery: (Laser procedure on tongue) has been rescheduled for Thursday, August 16th. Thankfully the very kind surgical nurse was able to fit us in at a convenient time for us and still 4 weeks before the next procedure (Injections- September 13th).

Events: The reason we worried about the timing of surgery was because we will be away this weekend attending ME’s first and only cousin’s christening on Sunday (Evan) and also making a trip to the Aquarium near them on Saturday. Lots of fun with Daddy’s family.
Then during the week of the 20th we’ll be heading to Lake George for 3 days with Grandma & Grandpa Ray for a mini-vacation (that’s all there is time for). Going to take ME to Story Town in Great Escape and whatnot.
Of course right after all that we’ll be busy with Uncle Daniel’s wedding to Aunt Amber on September 1st. And everything leading up to it (dress fittings, rehearsal dinner and whatnot).

Pregnancy: Little one is still kicking away and getting stronger everyday. We get another peak at him/her on August 14th. Very exciting. Soon we will be posting a Baby Pool on the website – just for fun – so you can guess the weight, length, date of birth and yes, the sex too. Everyone’s already been claiming things so we’ll get them locked in and see who’s the good guess-er this time around! I’m rooting for this baby to come right after eating a good/big Turkey Dinner, we shall see!

So of course, as always, stay tuned…
