Due Date Revised - ? weeks to go!

For the last few weeks we haven't had internet at home, so we're sorry for the long wait for those of you who have been anxiously awaiting the next posting!
As for the due date (March 18)...looks like baby may want to come a lot sooner than this. The head "dropped" almost two weeks ago. It was a pain-filled three days while I worried that I was in premature labour. Thankfully it was just the baby's head making it's way down into my pelvis and pushing through the nerves and all that good stuff. Our midwife said that babies are usually born about 4 weeks after they drop down, so that puts our due date closer to March 9th (which was the original due date before the ultrasound).
We're so happy to say that the baby is in the "right" position. It will make for a much easier labour (hopefully). The baby is about 6 pounds now and 18 inches long. The legs are so powerful and at times a foot sticks so far out my side or over top of my ribs that I can almost grab and hold it. We have had a lot of fun making all the preparations for this new person in our household. It's hard to put words to the feeling of anticipation and excitement for what is in store.
For those of you who think we're having a boy (which is 95% of people), our midwife thinks we're having a girl (but she's not clairvoyant or anything, it's just a guess). So, time will tell!
Thanks for all the comments - we love to hear from you! As I grow to gargantuan proportions in these last remaining weeks, we'll try to post every week. -Steph
