Hi there!.....Quick Update

I don't post much on here, but I lurk everyday and the info I read is invaluable.

Just a quick update....this baby is taking me for a ride.  I have to have weekly iron infusions due to severe anemia, if these don't work then i'll have to have a blood transfusion prior to delivery.   

I went in yesterday for my 28 week OB appointment, up 12lbs (not too bad) had my 3D ultrasound done....(baby looks like he's praying, lol).  He's feisty (one hell of a kicker) and doing great.

Currently baby weighs just under 3lbs and the doc says he's expected to triple in size....."SAY WHAT WOMAN!!!" 

That's a 9lb baby! 

Please keep me in prayer for good health and peace of mind, my daughter was only 5lbs and gave me pure grief!
 

Life is not about making it through the storm....but learning how to dance in the rain.

Glad you came out of lurkdom...and hope the iron situation improves so you don't have to do the transfusion.  Ugh. 

Re the baby's size...I guess it depends on your body frame...and the baby's postion or whatever...my son was 9 lb 12 oz...and he popped right out after just three pushes.  ; )  guess I have 'birthing hips.'  In the meantime...don't worry about that part of the process until it gets here.  Just enjoy being pregnant and take care of yourself re the iron.
