Week 37: Full-Term!

Professor Goldblatt isn't fully cooked, but she is edible, so to speak. That is to say, her lungs are fully mature and can adjust to the real world if necessary. As of now, the good Prof. weighs somewhere around 6 1/3 lbs, and is around 19 inches long. Or about the size of a stalk of Swiss chard. I love these random "about the size of" examples. I, honestly, have no idea what a Swiss chard is, but I'm going to Google it in a second to find out (and get a suitable picture to use). So thanks to Goldblatt, she's already helping me learn something new each day.

Overboard is doing okay, but getting a wee bit more uncomfortable as Goldblatt drops lower and plans her big escape. To her credit, Overboard is currently waddling through the discomfort, but it does mean Kenny is suffering from less opportunities to be picked up by Mommy. Not that it's a bad thing. After all, in only two weeks, Mr. Man is going to have to start being more and more independent since we'll have a wee one to fuss over and carry about. We'll see how that goes.
