I had an appointment today. First I had my sonogram. She took all the accurate measurements and end result was Mallory is weighing 8lbs 6oz as of today!!!! She is in the 97th percentile! That is just insane to me! I know I have big babies and they definently run in the family but WHOA! I was 9lbs 7oz; Luis was 9.6, Ashlyn was almost 9 at 8.14. I have cousins, nieces, nephews all in the 9lb even 10lb range. I can tell she is bigger than Ashlyn. She sits right out in front just stretching my skin by the day. I didn't get hardly any stretch marks with Ashlyn and not any on my belly and Mallory has broken that mold, the front of me is stretched out and so tight. And someone I managed to lose 3lbs in one week ha.
So with that said, we have chosen to have a repeat Csection on May 6th. With her size, I'm just afraid of the risk of uterine rupture with vaginal birth and then just not being able to handle her size. And I figure if God wants it another way, I'll go into labor before my csection.
We are very excited and anxious! I can't wait to meet her. Ashlyn is beside herself ready! She's going to be such a big help!
Here she is , side profile, blowing bubbles :)

I love big babies. They don't seem as fragile. Bray was good sized but now he's a couple pounds smaller than C was at this age and I can tell a difference.
Anyhoo, best of luck!!!! :)
YAY!!! Very very soon we will finally meet that sweet baby girl!
Yay! I am so excited for you! She is almost here and then I can plan a new visit!
that's so exciting.. the day will be here before you know it. :)
