“She has a big belly!”

A short while ago I was easily upset by all the random people telling me just how large I had gotten. I still don’t advocate telling someone they look like they are huge, but my perspective is a little different these days and I just smile and nod. These days people just ask when the due date is, or simply guess “any day now?” Tonight, a young girl of about 3 passed us on the sidewalk and told her dad “she has a big belly!”. She was just stating the obvious. I took a measurement of my belly, something I had been scared to do since pre-pregnancy and the results were shocking…41 inches!

Immediately Dan began to tell me where on his chest 41 inches would hit, or that it was like 3.5 feet tall! We laugh that I don’t just fall over forwards. So when we got home, I did a little research and found a few other things that are about 41 inches:

Another pregnant belly (not me)

A snake about 3.5 ft long

A guitar

Or ironically, a young girl, only slightly larger than the girl we passed on the sidewalk

We see the Doctor again tomorrow and hopefully she’ll be able to tell us if our boy is big, or just his mom
