Me: 26 or 25 or some number of weeks fat, you choose.

Actually you don’t get to choose, I was lying. I went in for another ultrasound (performed by the exact same technician) and was told that I am measuring exactly for 12/11/09, the exact same date as 4 weeks before, or 12 days after my “scientifically calculated” due date originally assigned to me. At least she’s consistent? Oh, and she’s still at she, we got a better look this time.

Now I’m no fool, I know babies don’t come out on their due date (I also know that ultrasounds lie: Harmon did not weight 9.5 pounds one day before he came out), but I was hoping for whatever reason that this baby would have gotten fatter (the french fry and oreo diet apparently doesn’t work, or maybe I DESERVE a small baby this time?) and that I would get changed back to my original due date. I try to tell myself when she is two weeks overdue by the first count she will only be two days late and maybe it won’t be so bad, but it’s not working.

So for those of you keeping track (which is not me, I have to look it up every time), I am about 26 weeks or a week away from being 6 months by the first count, and 25ish weeks or 5 1/2 months along. This picture was taken within the last week.
