36 week appointment

I had the first of my weekly appointments today and it was very exciting!! I am 70% effaced and at a -1. The doctor felt the head and said the baby has definitely dropped and we are ready to go! He did say this doesn't necessarily mean I will delivery early but he wouldn't be surprised if I did. Luckily - the furniture is supposed to be shipped Wed so hopefully next week sometime we can finish the nursery (finally!). We got the car seat installed over the weekend and I am now a pro at installing it in all positions. =) He thinks the baby is about 6.5 lbs right now and thinks he will be on the bigger side which does not excite me in the least. Oh well - I know that these estimates are rarely accurate. Next appointment is Monday and hopefully there will be some progress! I'll keep you posted.

35 weeks

Just because I'm lazy - I'm posting some pictures w/o the "outfit." However, Mabel wanted to be in on the excitement so she is in it as well. Definitely feeling bigger with every passing day - sleeping and moving around are getting harder but it is still manageable. The furniture should be coming any day now and I am very anxious for it to get here so we can finish up the nursery!

34 weeks


Geez!! I can't believe how quickly my due date is approaching. AH! Actually - I'm feeling more and more ready each day. We are slowly but surely getting all the "stuff" we need. The furniture is supposed to come by the end of this month. I am really looking forward to getting that so I can finish up the nursery. I had 34 week appointment today. I am measuring 34 weeks so all is good. The heart beat was strong. My next appointment is in two weeks and then I will go every week after that until I deliver! My doctor said my uterus can't go up anymore since it has reached my ribs so now I will just grow outwards. I am definitely starting to feel heavy and moving around isn't so easy anymore.
