36 weeks

We are 36 weeks today. I went to the doctor's this morning. Everything is still looking good. I have not gained any weight since January, however the doc thinks this baby might be on the bigger side. He asked how big Mathias was, 7 lbs 12 oz, and said this one might just be bigger. Seriously not what I want to hear. He estimated that she weighs about 6 pounds right now and that they put on about a half a pound a week for the last month. I am seriously praying that she is not huge. I guess we will just have to wait and see. He did not check me for dilation and said that he usually doesn't until 38 weeks unless you are having a ton of contractions or if you want to be checked. I have been having contractions almost every day but nothing regular and probably nothing worth checking over. Plus Mathias was born the day after his due date and I am worried that if he checked me now I would just be disappointed, so we will wait a couple more weeks. We are now onto weekly visits. I cannot believe how close we are now. I am so ready to meet her but not sure if I am prepared for her yet.
