Name the Date

One of my favorite things to do is document everything... I have a pregnancy book and one of the things it has is having friends guess the sex and date of birth of the baby. Well, we kind of blew it with the boy/girl thing since we didn't tell anyone we were expecting a baby until we already knew it was a boy but there's still time to try to guess the date.

Here are some of the facts to help you make the guess.

• I'm due August 15
• I'm considered "Full Term" (37 1/2 weeks) - that means that though I have 2 1/2 weeks left I could go into labor any time and the baby is fine
• They were concerned the baby would be too big so they would need to induce at 38 or 39 weeks but they think the baby is growing fine
• They did say they would induce rather than let me go past my due date, like I did with the first 2
• Chad may or may not be going out of town this Wednesday and Thursday (for those of you, like me, that believe Murphy's Law has more influence than we appreciate)
• I've been having Braxton Hicks (fake contractions) for days now
• I normally go past my due date
• I'm not ready

I think that's all the necessary information that might influence when I could have the baby. I need everyone to post their guess so I can fill that page in my book - and if you haven't voted for the bald/blond/brunette poll yet you can do that too.

(It's these silly little things that help me forget the aches and pains and have fun during the pregnancy :)
