36 week update

Posted in Baby Hopkins at 7:53 am by winz

Matt and I went for my 36 week update yesterday. We had an ultra sound and spoke with the doctor. All is good with Baby Hop. He/She – yep we still didn’t find out, is doing great. The ultra sound tech was able to see BH’s big cheeks (Emma’s gift to BH), luscious lips (yeah, I’m pretty sure Beyonce is in there somewhere) and hair -I asked if I should go out and buy some bows before she comes. It was amazing to see images of BH so close to his/her due date and to think we know a little more about that he/she looks like. BH is in the head down position and gearing up for his/her entrance into the world. Doc White estimates that it’ll be about 8.5 pounds give or take – I’m really hoping there isn’t a whole lot of giving going on. He didn’t provide us with any guesses on when we might be having a birthday party but Matt and I are happy to take full advantage of the rest and quiet nights until he/she gets here.

We will post video and pics soon. Stay tuned! Until then!

    I’m ready. Really I think I’m going to jump out of my skin, I’m so ready for Hoppy to come. I want to see him/her and listen to the most wonderful cries/coos and squeels. Just think only a few more weeks to go, (3 or so???, depending on the mood) Does he she have Matt’s eyes and your skin color? or Mom’s eyes and Matt’s wonderful thick hair. Soon we will know.

    How are all these babies being born with so much hair? Why did my little Mini-me wait till she was 3 to grow hers? Be glad for the hair if she is a girl. I was constantly told that my SON had beautiful eyes – never mind that my “son” was wearing a pink frilly dress and had earings in her ears!
