Baby Predictions

Who wants to play a little guessing game? Here are my predictions for our baby:



The official due date is 20 January but I've always been expecting the baby to be late (following in my footsteps!). Neither of us has any family history of babies arriving early, so that would be a surprise!



I honestly have no idea! Throughout the pregnancy I haven't had a strong feeling either way, though earlier on I was leaning towards boy but now I'm starting to think girl...



This is apparently the average weight for a New Zealand baby, and my midwife always describes our baby as "textbook" because it's always been right on target for growth. For some background info: Owen was 6 pounds 12 ounces (3.06 kilos) and I was 7 pounds 10 ounces (3.46 kilos)


Feel free to make your predictions in the comments!

  4. Wow! I can't believe your so close. It seems like just a few months ago you were just preggers. Good luck with everything. Enjoy your time sans baby as well.
