The one thing I keep thinking in the midst of feeling pretty terrible is that I'm just SO glad I'm not in labor simultaneously! But, we are getting close, so I think it's time for a little baby pool to see who can guess when Elliott is coming to play with us!

Here's what I know that might help you make an informed guess:
Due Date: November 16 (3.5 weeks!!)
As of Tuesday: 50% effaced, 1/2 cm dilated, -3 station
Elliott's size: potentially large :) measured at 5 lbs. 11 oz as of 2 weeks ago
Family History: Both my mom and sister delivered late
Dr's Induction Policy: With a first child, she wouldn't induce until at least 41 weeks without a specific reason to (in theory, Nov. 23).
So, leave a comment (yes .. that's you ... I know all of you silent blog stalkers want to come out of the woodwork!) with your best guess of date and time, and let's throw weight in there too in case we need a tie-breaking factor!

I am going to say November 17th and he's going to weigh 7 pounds 12 ounces.
I WILL win!!!
I think November 18th (Mae's 1st Birthday) and he'll weigh 8 pounds.

November 21st - he will weigh in at 7 lbs 15 ozs
can't wait to see this guy!!!
November 20th at 4 pm. I think he will weigh around 8 lb. 6 ounces.
I'm going with November 19th, 8 lbs. 4 oz.
You look great! Can't wait to see pictures of that sweet little guy :).
is the h1n1 an official diagnosis?
You are not going to like this one, but I'm saying November 23 around 9 pm. 8 pounds 7 ounces.
Your cuz here in Middle TN. I was on the phone with Mither and she mentioned your pregnancy pictures. So I had to check things out for myself! She said she ALSO went late, so it looks like you'll have to be to keep it in the family! The flu may complicate your delivery, so I'm not guessing as late as I might have otherwise!
I'm guessing in the wee hours of Nov 20—maybe around 2am! (Gotta throw a little excitement in for fun!) Little Elliott will weigh in at 7 lbs, 6 oz!
By the way, I saw your dad yesterday too. I haven't see him in a looong time. It was great seeing him. I was in a Subway getting a sandwich, looked up and your dad had already paid for his and was getting ready to leave. He mentioned that you and Adam have the flu. Praying things go well as you head down this final stretch of your pregnancy journey!

November 18, 8 lbs 12 oz
Can't wait to meet you, little Elliott!
ok...i'm not sure this is my final..for now i think... november 14th 7lbs 12 ozs
i'll let you know if that changes so you can make plans :)
oh... and lots of hair and blue eyes and absolutely adorable..that part i'm sure of
November 13th; 8 lbs 10oz
I feel like because he is big and a boy, he could come a little early--maybe it will be different because your mom and sister had girls.
November 23rd around 5 pacific, he makes it out and begs to see the Titans on Monday Night Football, and then cries when he realizes how bad they are. 9 pounds, 2 ounces.
This is a little crazy since you have never been known to be on time, but I'm going with Sunday, Nov. 15th at 4:34 a.m. You were a Sunday baby also, and I was up all night so I'm predicting a repeat! I have to agree with Mimi. Very cute I'm sure!! And you and Elliott can share a birthday cake!! Going with 8 lbs. 1 ounce. Can't wait!!
I keep coming here to leave my guess and I just can't make up my mind...i need a little more time. Hehe...love you guys and so very excited!!!
You need to put a deadline on this for cheaters like Ryan. :)
hehe Shannon!!! That is so true...with no deadline I have trouble committing..:)
however here I go...
I am going to say November 10th... weighing in at 7 pounds 4 ounces.
:)
friday the 13th. high noon. 8 pounds even.
This is Andrew King.. Elliot will be 7 lbs 11 oz 20 inches long, due on Nov. 17th
9:43 am November 23.
1 pound. Is this like the price is right and if everyone else goes over then I win?
november 16, 2:27pm, 7 pounds 9 ounces.
