Check up

I had my first "every week" appointment today and it was just grand...
We also got an ultrasound and in the pictures the doctor said

"wow he has hair"
Who would have guessed.
The hair is the fuzz part right next to the word hair.
I have no idea what angle this is taken at.
 
He is still measuring 1 week ahead but has been the entire time
Everything looked great and he is a health boy measuring 6lb 12oz --the Doc said that is probably heavier than he really is right now. If that's true were looking at around 7lbs 10 oz at my due date. (seems to tiny)
 
I am 36 weeks and dilated 2.5-3cm & 50% effaced. I was beyond shocked -- with Xelly I was one week overdue and not even a generous 1/2 inch dilated when I got to the Hospital.
 
 
Doctor said she wants to strip my membranes at 38 weeks and go from there. She want me to have this kid around the first week of October. We will see. My mom is not getting here till the 11th so things might get tricky if he surprises us.
I'm still hoping for a due date baby though because I like the idea of 10-11-12 birthday.

Woohoo I like 10-11-12 too cause its my birthday!!! Haha that is so funny.. it gives me hope cause I wasn't dilated with Bristyn at all either.. My water broke and I didn't even dilate to a 1 for like 3 hours.. Tell me how that works! haha I can't wait to see him :)

Also.. Bristyn was 7lbs. 9 oz. and it was seriously perfect!! I loved it cause she was tiny, but not too tiny!!
