Baby Poll

So, no baby last night . . . no contractions yet today. Yeah! :) I am taking mercy on my hips and legs and seeing the chiropractor today. I am in such agony at night that I wake up about every hour (seriously). The only thing that relieves the aches in my hips and legs is to get out of bed or to sit up, propped with some pillows. I do both . . . a lot.

Abigail woke up coughing at 5:30 am. Andrew took care of her (thankfully). The unfortunate part is that his alarm goes off at 5:45 am so he missed his last 15 minutes of sleep. He got her cough calmed down pretty fast, though. She slept until about 7:15 am.

I think it would be fun to hear from some of you when you think this baby will come, what her name will be, and how big she will be. So, please leave a comment! :)

Here is my guess/intuition: She'll be born 11/6/2009 @ 2:12 pm. 8 lbs 2 oz, 20 inches long. Ha! I'm not telling you the name though.

Oh, by the way. The person who gets the closest in all categories will win a lunch date with me and baby #2 (maybe Abigail) at the Red Onion (when we feel like getting out) or something of equal value (if you live far away).

Alright, I'm going to go for it.
I think she will be born on Nov. 11 (11/11 would be a cool birthday!). I think she will weight 7 lbs, 9 oz and her name will be Audrey.
There you have it! :)

Haha I am going to take a whack at this too!

Audrey (because I love that choice!), born on 11/9, weighing 8 lbs, 2 oz. 20 inches

Oh wait, you guessed 8 pounds 2 ounces. I'll change mine to 8 pounds, 3 ounces :)

I guess she will be born on 11/5/09 at 4:35 am and will weigh 7 lbs, 9 oz. I guess that her name will be Claire.

Wow! This is so much fun (for me anyway). I love hearing everyone's guesses.

My weight guess is based on the fact that my belly is only slightly bigger at this point (as compared with Abigail) and she was 7 lbs 14 oz. Of course, this is very unscientific! :)

I guess I should add a time and length so make sure I win! SO, 12:12 pm, and she will be 21 inches.

8 pounds
Brianna Elizabeth Schechter

I know that won't be her name, but I put it anyway. Doesn't it have a nice ring to it? My second guess is Olivia.

Love, Mom

Thanks for all the guesses! It will be fun to see who gets the closest! By the way, one of you is very close to the name we have picked out! :)

Well, I was going to guess about the same time that you predicted (No really:) because that is the exact time we will be finding out the sex of our baby. I think that would be cool. As far as the name, how about: Olivia Jaime :) Weight: 7 poinds 7 oz.

K, how about Monday, Nov. 9 at 4:10 a.m. She'll weigh 7 pounds 8 ounces and will be 19 1/2 inches long. I pick Audrey for the name. Oh, and if she comes on that date and time, she's super cool since that's when I was born :)

Unknown said...

To my dear sister, thanks for your loyalty (with the name)! :)

Cindy, I would be very tempted to come to Colorado to take you to lunch. That would be such fun! :)

I'd love for our baby to share her birthday with you, Melanie. That is very possible! :)
