32 weeks

Sorry, I left everyone hanging.  (At this point I assume most readers are friends and get my updates elsewhere.)  Anyway, 31 week ultrasound showed a cervix completely closed and 5cm long.  Yes, that is LONG.  My MFM consult post-ultrasound went remarkably well.  The specialist said it was "absurd" (yes his choice of words) to suggest progesterone supplementation at this point in time for a VBAC candidate with a cervix two times longer than what is considered a normal closed length at this point in pregnancy.  (Anything longer than 2.5cm is considered normal.)

All seems well in baby land too.  Baby boy is measuring large, just like his brothers did.  Assumption is that if he goes to 40 weeks he will be approximately 9lbs.  This doesn't really bother me - my first was 9lb 10oz and came out fine.

No real explanation for my excruciating pain, other than its the third trimester and this little guy is estimated to be 4lb 8oz already.  (And yes, those estimates are notoriously inaccurate.)

Anyway, tomorrow is 32 weeks.  Nothing really to do at this point other than wait out the last 2 months.  Actually there is a lot to do.  We've done nothing to prepare for this baby at all.  NOTHING.  So I guess we better get on that - since if he wants to be like his middle brother, he could be here in 4 weeks . . .
