The Guessing Game

Well, since I still have yet to get my software for transferring pictures, I will open up the blog for guesses about the baby. As I mentioned in a post a while back, while we were guessing the gender, I think it would be fun to have you all guess facts about the baby in advance and send some sort of a small prize to the winner after she is born. I am asking that only people who know me guess. No strangers please.

To give you all a fighting chance, I will tell you the facts about both of my previous births(and babies) and how this pregnancy is going thus far.

I will start with Adam.

Adam was due on January 6th. He was born on January 6th. He weighed 9 lbs. 9 oz. He was born at 8:18 p.m. He was 21.5 inches long. I was in labor for three days. I had over 50 stitches.

Rowan was due on December 20th. He was born on December 20th. He weighed 7 lbs. 11 oz. He was born at 11:30 p.m. He was 22 inches long. I was in hard labor approx. 6 hours. I had 20 or so stitches.

This time I am due June 15th. So far I'm feeling a little more like I did with Adam. Maybe a little less cranky but really large and full of baby. I am measuring 4 cm big at this point which I did with Adam as well. We already know we're having a girl.

So you guys get to guess:

Her birth date
Her birth weight
Her length
What time she is born
and just for kicks
How many stitches I'll have

Whoever is closest on all five will get the prize. I'm not sure what it will be yet but I'm thinking on it. I am open to suggestions but keep it small. Also, please have patience as I may not get it taken care of for a couple of weeks after she is born.

Have fun! I am really excited to see all of your guesses!

Yes! I am hoping you're right too! Except I hope Karina is right about the date. =)

I've been really anxious because I'm pretty sure she's still in the breech position and I don't have any faith in her turning in the next three or four weeks. They said that they don't even concern themselves with it until about 36 weeks. I wonder if they realize how big she could really be right now. So please pray that she turns soon. I have an appointment in a couple of hours, maybe they'll tell me I'm wrong!
