Anyone Want to Guess???
Any guesses as to when Dave will open the bottle of Hope? I will be 37 weeks pregnant tomorrow and I’m 3cms dilated. My official due date is February 7th.
If you want to take a stab at size, go ahead. Lauren was born at 39 weeks, 5 days. She was 6 lbs. 12 oz. and 20 inches long.

Hi Lana, January 28 11:45pm If I am right what do I win
) I thougt about making it a little earlier but figure that is a good time since you will have a night nurse for Carmen and Dave gets to pace the halls for a few hours in anticipation. God bless. In Christ, Joe
Hmmm… January 20th or 21st. I bet Hope will also be in the 6 pound range, and 21 inches long.
Constantly keeping all of you in prayer… Love, Christina
January 22, 9:35 pm. 6lb 5 oz. 19.75″
Feb.1, 2010 12:00 noon……
I say Feb 3. 6lbs 11.5 oz 20 inches (I like Feb 3 it’s my birthady too)
I’m going to say Feb 8th, though I know that’s kind of a long way away. It would just be too funny if she actually ended up being later than her due date. How are your contractions now that the terbutaline (sp.)has stopped??
I will guess Jan 26th, she will be 6lbs (although I have a feeling she will be in the high 5 lbs) and 20 inches long.
Full moon is January 30, so I am going with that – - although it is a VERY busy weekend for us – - – I am still going with that – - and she will be 6 lbs even – - how is that for a guess???
Also – - it is about time you got something up on this site
:D you haven’t written since last Monday and that makes us all think you might be on your way to the hospital – - -
Just want to add – - since you deliver so quickly, I have to account for the fact that as we get close to the pull of the full moon, you may go the night before – - so I will leave January 29 as my backup date – -
Now that’s the NY Grandma that I know and love. Pick more than one date and try to fill all the slots. Ha ha ha.
just trying to be thorough
I love these games…always play this when someone in our family is in labor…I am going with Jan 19th, u look pretty small in the pic so I am going to say 6 lbs and 2 ozs and 19 in long…I hope all goes well…so glad u have made it this far…good girl Hope for listening and staying put…
Okay, I’ll say January 28th and 6 lbs 9 ozs, 19 inches long (like her mom).
OK – January 21st – 11:45am. 6lbs 3oz and 19 inches long! We brought Baby Ry home on the 31st, but I don’t know if Hope will wait that long! All my love.
January 27 – 6lbs 5 oz (same as my daughter Kira who was born in 1991)
I say January 19th or 20th, early morning, around 5 pounds and 8 oz, and about 19 inches long. Good luck!!!
Man….I knew I should have stuck with my original date….Feb. 1st. Ok, that’s my next guess. =] Same weight guess and everything else. =]
something says you will go into labor on the 18th the afternoon and have Hope somewhere around midnight. weight around 6 lb
The 18th would work! Martin Luther King day!
walk walk walk lol
No labor yet.
well darn lol
I am going to say Jan.22, 5lbs 15oz 19.5 in.
January 22 at 7:00 am
Oh! 6 lbs. 8 oz.
Hmmm, I wil say the 23rd, in the early evening and weighing around 6lbs 3oz and 19 in long! Hope you have a nice, easy delivery! will be in my prayers!
I say January 18th, late morning and she’ll be 6lbs 12oz and 20 1/2 inches long…
(My SIL was due January 16th, but was 3cm on Monday night and delivered Tuesday morning 1/12!)
Definitely not this morning. We’re still @ home.
I say Febuary 1st 5# 10 0z and about 18 1/2 inches tall.
Good Luck!!!
2/2/10 All even numbers…. my favs. 2:22AM 6lb 2oz
February babies are super special…..
What a blessing as she rests right now in God’s hands and will enter this world gently there, as well. Praise God!!!
I just want to say congrats on making full term Lana, I know you worked hard for it! So for the guess I say January 25th and I say 5lbs 10 oz
February 14th, 12:10pm. 6 lbs 13 oz.
is there any significance to this date – - other than it is valentine’s day?? – the weight is the same as lauren’s so i get that – -
Dave has two business trips to Chicago coming up so he is hoping the baby will come late…
Lana thinks February 14th is her real due date (she keeps track of that kind of stuff). It’s also the day of love, which fits nicely with hope (and faith).
Besides, Hope’s middle name will be AnnLove so that would fit in nicely as well.
BTW, just kidding about her middle name. It’s not that.
ew. thank goodness.
January 30th (my birthday…and my dad’s birthday too)
5lbs 11oz
19 1/2 inches long
2/2/2010. Groundhog’s day and my brother’s birthday.
6 pounds 3 ounces, 19 inches long, just like MY February baby.
My stepfather is turning 80 on Thursday! He looks/acts 70 IMO – and he feels very blessed to have such wonderful life. My neice has the same birthday – she is turning 22.
Somy guess is as follows:
Thursday, January 21, 11:30am, 7 lbs, 1 ounce.
Wishing you a Happy Labor Day!
Ha! I didn’t get that at first. Thanks Cathy! We’re hoping for a mid-week Labor Day in the next two weeks or anytime after 2/2.
Feb 4, in the morning, 6 pounds even, 19 inches.
Sending lots of good wishes and hope you’re not having the horrible rainy/sleety/snowy/slushy/grim day we’re having here in New England.
I think Jan 29th is a wonderful day so I am going to say Jan 29th, 7 pounds.
Tomorrow. Wednesday, January 20. Sometime in the afternoon. 5lbs. 11oz. 19″
Monica, that would work out nicely!
I want to take a guess too! Congrats LAna on making it this far- good girl Hope!!! I will say Jan 24, 5lbs 13 oz & 19.5 in. There is no rhyme or reason to my guess just good ole fun!!!
Can I guess too?
You look so tiny in your pictures Lana, so I’m thinking baby Hope will also be tiny…..say 6lbs and 1 oz and 19 inches long, born January 23 at 1:55 am.
I can’t wait to “meet” her!
Debbie
Ok.. taking a guess as well… Feb 5! Same size as Lauren
Well I guess my guess of Jan 19th wasnt correct so I am now going with jan 26 and I keep the weight around 6 or 6.5 lbs!! Good luck to you Lana whenever the special day may be! I cannot wait to see pics of Baby Hope!!!!!
Lana – I just sent you an email with the info we talked about
So what’s the latest??? I keep anxiously checking back to see!!
No news really. Lana was 3cm dilated on Wednesday. Hope is still just hangin’ out!
Baby Hope decided it is nice and comfy and cozy where she is….she is going to stay as long as she can now…LOL!! So glad u made it this far!! <3
You know Lana, you’re just about the same amount pregnant as Rachel (Easterling) Allison is with twins! Her 7th and 8th to be exact! Neat, huh?
My goodness! Her 7th and 8th?! I am in awe!
Did you give me a Gap black maternity top? If so, I have worn it a LOT! My favorite shirt!
well i guess ill do a second guess. Feb 13 in the evening, 6 lb 1 oz 19in. Good Luck.
LOL this is my 3rd guess….I am going to say Feb 6th…6 lbs 10 ozs and 19 inches long…this is my daughters bday
To all skeptics!!
Never underestimate the pull of the moon – - – a heavenly body
Hey, NY Gradma, “you the bomb”, as is said in teen vernacular these days. Prophecy… I just read that is a special gift. Praise God!!!!!
[...] because of the full moon. NY Grandma is smart like that! Allison also guessed January 30 on the Anyone Want to Guess post. Congrats to both of [...]
