Future Linebacker?

Yesterday we had a regular checkup with the Dr. She read the sonogram results to us and our little guy is right on track! We were very pleased to hear that he has no cleft lip or cleft palate, that all body parts look right, spine looks good, etc. Some news we were completely shocked by was Baby's size! He is in the 98th percentile and based on measurements, will arrive a week earlier. The Dr. didn't make a mistake in our original due date and she has not officially changed it, his size just means an earlier arrival...a week earlier at this point.

The biggest surprise was that his estimated birth weight is 10.5 - 11 pounds! That really shocked me! Of course, time will tell what will actually happen and everyone has all kinds of stories about people who measured a certain size and the baby was significantly bigger or smaller at birth. I guess we'll just see what develops!! The most important thing is that he's healthy.
