Baby Predictions

No baby yet.  Nope, instead I have a horrible cold that has knocked me off my feet and am mostly on the couch.  Ugh.  However, I go to the doctor tomorrow for my 37 week checkup... in which I am considered full term.  So, I thought it would be fun to get some predictions about this baby.

Here is how it works:  Predict the date, time of day and weight of our little Mason.  For example, I will give my prediction on May 3, 3:47 pm, and 9 lbs 1 oz.  --- If I don't get the date right, I can still win the time or weight.  THERE WILL BE A PRIZE FOR EACH WINNER! (I'll even mail out the prizes).

Let me give some background stats for you:

Elise was born at 37 weeks, induced due to pre-eclampsia, took 33 hours from the time they started my labor, she weighed 7lbs 10oz.

Owen was born at 39 weeks, induced by my choice, took 8 hours from the time they started my labor, he weighed 10 lbs 3oz.

Magdalyn was born at 34 3/7 weeks, induced due to pre-eclampsia, took 13 hours from the time they started my labor, she weighed 6 lbs 9oz.

THIS baby- no complications, at my 35 week appointment I was 1.5 cm dilated, 80% effaced, 36 week appointment I was 2 cm dilated, 80-90% effaced.  So far, only sporadic contractions and not often.

Of course, I want this baby to come asap, Daniel wants me to wait another week and a half... because it would be most convenient for him... yeah, ok, I will totally work around that:).  We are anxious to have Mason join our family!
