Semi-Final Baby

This is the newest picture of the baby taken on Friday. Not a lot has happened since the last scan taken last week except she`s gained 100 grammes. She`s at 36 weeks now which means we`re in the last straight. Reiko`s getting sick of carrying around all the extra weight.

By Japan`s interesting standards, Reiko`s will be pregnant for 10 months instead of the normal 9 in the West as they measure the length of time from the woman`s last period instead of the date of conception.

According to the doctor, she should come out around the semi-final of the World Cup. He asked me what I`d do if Reiko was giving birth the same time that England were playing in the final. Well….

      Just thought i would let you know that actually the reason its considered 10 months is because.

      ”Q. Why do Japanese people say that women deliver their babies in the TENTH month?
      A. No, Japanese babies don’t take longer to mature. Japanese do not count calendar months, but instead think in terms of lunar months of exactly 28 days. Those few days at the end of each of the 9 months count together for one extra month, hence ten months. (pregnancy is 40 weeks = 10 * 4 weeks = ‘10 months)”.”

      Tom,

      Reiko says that used to be the way they counted the months but now they take it from the last period.
