How is the baby feeling today ?

They will often weigh a bit less before surgery bc they've had no food/water too, so try not to worry too much. As long as her body "feels" right - not too cushy, not too bony - she is probably the right weight for now. I always go by my guys' ribs - they should feel not too "buried" and not too prominent. Also, the little ones (like my Marcel) often have little growth spurts later too - so she may still put on a little weight yet.
