So, I went for a check up yesterday and I don't have any dieases or sicknesses. No HIV and all the rest. Whew!
From what the textbooks say, the baby should be around 260g~300g. My baby is 400g! Just to let you know, that's the size a 5 month old baby would be. I'm only 4 1/2 months.
Vesna told me that if I'm taking too many vitamins that could be what's making my baby huge, but I'm only taking one multi-vitamin daily, and sometimes skipping days. So, it can't be that.
Praise told me that if I'm resting and taking it easy then the baby will take all my energy and vitamins from me because I'm not using them, and that's one way the baby can get huge. I'm not lazying around all day, but I wouldn't say I'm active throughout the day, and I'm not so faithful with my exercising. Hmm...this could be part of it.
Course, another reason for this massiveness is that Josh is massive. Half Korean/Japanese. I'm half American/Japanese. Could it be that the baby may have strong Korean/American biggness?? Sheesh! I hope it turns out normal and not a monster child.
Well, thankfully, on the outside I don't look so big. Someone told me today that I didn't look pregnant at all! It's true...with a sweater and jacket on, people wouldn't have a clue.
hehe there's all kinds of reasons for everything as you will get to know, but honestly there is no set weight a baby will be at a certain time, it's all good! Are you going to find out the sex? I'm just waiting to send you a package :D!!
ReplyDeleteMore pics of you please! SO exciting, baby's are awesome :)
Those numbers are just averages. Don't worry yourself silly and get hung up on the numbers. But the theory of multi-vitamins making your baby big....thats the first time I heard that....sounds kind of silly though. I bet you those numbers would be higher or lower in other countries, so somewhere in the world your baby is JUST on target! Your child will be beautiful no matter the size!
ReplyDeleteYes, I'd like to find out the sex. I'm just waiting for the baby to be in the right position. :) If I never find out...oh well. I'll be happy either way.
ReplyDeleteIf it's a girl, Mia says she has lots of baby girls clothes. And if it's a boy, Leika (Josh's sister) already gave me a bunch of boy clothes. :) So, I feel prepared as far as baby clothes goes.
