Guessing game.

Okay, so I have had alot of questions about the size of this baby so I thought I'd post a picture of my past two pregnancies and see what you think. Here's the whole purpose of this post...what do you think this baby will weigh? Take a guess- I'd love to hear what you think.

39 weeks, 5 days pregnant with Austin (10 lbs. 4 oz.)- I had him two days later. My midwife thought he'd be about 7 1/2 pounds. I was measuring 38 cm at 40 weeks. (Notice my ankles, feet and legs...I didn't have any water retention with this pregnancy- it was awesome!)

Prego with Noah (8lbs. 6 oz.). The day before I had him. (Sorry it's so little...I don't know how to fix it)



Baby boy #4. Taken at 38 weeks, 6 days.
So...do you have any ideas. I'll be honest, I don't have a clue. According to the ultrasound he'll probably only be about 8- 8 1/2 pounds. But by looking at me...I'm not sure. I think I might look bigger than I did with Noah and he was 8 lbs. 6 oz (bigger than my doctor thought he'd be). I'm also alot more uncomfortable with this baby than I was with Noah. Just not sure...I'll know for sure in a few days (3 more days!!!) though!!! I'd also like to add that my first, Jonathan, was 11lbs. 8 oz. But...he was 3 weeks late. He would've been about 9 1/2- 10 lbs at 40 weeks. (No pictures of me prego with him. I'd have to find one and then scan it into this computer...)

So hard to tell! Looks like the bigger you are the smaller the baby. Lets guess and 8 pounder.. but I think a bit longer than any of your others just because you say you are more uncomfortable. Could be the weather.. and the taking care of 3 other kids and on your feet more. Either way, I"m so excited for you!

Hmmm. I think I'll say 8 lbs 12 oz. Or something like that. You look about the same size in all the pics.
So excited for you! :)

I just had my fourth boy two weeks ago today. I just keep thinking the Lord must need some Godly men. Congratulations. You are such a cute pregnant person.

All I can say is you look so radiant! I have big babies too, so I know the concern there. I happened upon your blog, and have enjoyed "getting to know you". You were quite the seamstress, and your home is just beautiful! More precious,though, are those boys! The Lord has truly blessed you! I have 5 boys (and 3 girls) so far. The boys keep life VERY active. I cannot imagine my life wihtout them.
Blessings to you!
