There is big news on baby Ryker's arrival...
Originally our count down has been to our due date...September 3rd, well all that has changed now. As of my last Dr appt on Friday we are scheduled for a labor induction on August 27th!!! The decision to induce was not a result of any pregnancy complications, but more of a preference between my Dr and our family. My labor with Cheyenne was induced and I loved the feeling of having a schedule and a plan. On the other hand, August 27th is still 23 days away---plenty of time for baby Ryker to decide he would like to make his own plan! As of last week I am already 1-2 cm dilated, so I guess we will just have to wait and see if Ryker is going to cooperate with his mommy's plans or march to the beat of his own drum!
In lieu of the recent labor and delivery developments, I decided it might be a good idea to go ahead and start a baby pool. We are inviting all of our blog viewers to post a comment with your guess/estimate on the following:
-Date of delivery(...you may include time as well, if you are feeling really lucky!)
-Weight of baby
-Length of baby
-Hair/eye color
Here are some facts about Cheyenne to help with your guess:
-Born on the date of her induction.
-Weighed 7lbs and was 19in long.
-She has been a blonde headed and blue eyed girl from the day she came in to this world!!!
Another little hint: Dr said that baby Ryker looks to already be about 5 1/2lbs now and estimates he will be at least 7 1/2lb at birth...but that is also just a guess:)
So let the pool begin!!!!!
