5/23 Checkup
Tam went in for a checkup to see how things are progressing now that we’re 3 days overdue. Time to get strapped in!
The kid is still riding fairly high up so it doesn’t seem like he’s popping out any time soon. There are already discussions about how far along our doc will let this go before he induces labor. If he makes it into June, he’s going to invoke the manual flush to get the boy out.
We got some hilarious information regarding the baby’s projected weight from some computer too. Apparently the computer’s algorithm, given the kid’s dimensions, estimates the birth weight to be 10lbs 3oz (holy hell, why am I envisioning ramming a Thanksgiving turkey through a tailpipe?)! 8lbs sounded brutal enough last week so everyone was glad the nurses were cracking up saying that the computer is wrong.
Regardless, here are some photos of the little one’s face:





Operator! Give me the number for 911!





That’s amazing!!!!

I knew I had an aversion to whole turkeys!! Oven stuffers or Cornish Hens are the way to go…….
