Healthy Baby

Went to see my nurse midwife again today. Let's see, I think I'm at 31 weeks now. She says I continue to measure about 1/2 a week over. That makes sense because, when we went to UIHC a week ago, they said baby is almost 4 pounds now. I think at 30-31 weeks babies are usually closer to 3 pounds. Anyway, he has a strong heart beat and the ultrasounds have looked good. Met with the lactation consultant locally and the plastic surgeon and his nurse in UIHC, and we got all our questions answered about feeding, assessment after birth, and repair of the cleft lip. We do plan on delivering at Covenant in Waterloo... EDD is still April 7th. I'll let you know if it looks like he'll be coming early ;)
