29 weeks and 4 days - 7 nights in the hospital as of now

Dear Baby Ethan,

Today Cindi and Sara from work were so sweet to come and visit.  They bought me lunch from Paradise Bakery, some work reading, and some other magazines.  It was so nice to see some familiar faces!  Then Father Hahn our new priest at St. Robert Bellarmine came by.  He said a prayer for us and visited for a bit.  He just blessed our house last Saturday, so it was nice to see him..

The Stats

The current count is that I have spent 7 nights in the hospital.  Because of the placenta previa they will not let you go past 36 weeks.  Thus, you will likely be born around September 4th.  As of now, I may be in the hospital another 6 weeks or so, which is 44 nights, or 1 month, 13 days.  Only 7 more Wednesdays!

At last measurement (Monday July 6th) when I was 27 weeks and a few days you weighed approximately 2.6 pounds and were in the 51% percentile, so they were not concerned about your growth.  We should have another scan in a few weeks, perhaps around August 3.  It's funny that your weight is about 1.5 pounds over the average listed here - http://www.babycenter.com/average-fetal-length-weight-chart.

Love you baby Ethan!
