What a wonderful feeling to know that we have been blessed enough to a) get pregnant in the first place, and b) carry our sweet girl safely to full term.
Anything can happen now.
At any time.
Ball's in her court... whenever she's ready, we'll be ready.
-Bags are juuuust about packed!
After a quick last-minute run to Target this afternoon, with a towel and change of pants riding shot gun, we are now totally packed. All the bags (mine and Andy's bag, the toiletries bag, Camy's bag, laptop bag, camera bag, and Boppy pillow) are all staged in one place ready to grab-n-go!!)
-Car seat is installed.
-Cosleeper is put together and in our room.
Come on Baby Girl... give us the green light!!!
We had our 37 week appt this morning.. one bit of news that I wasn't pleased with, but lots of news I was THRILLED by.
Bad News (to me): I gained 3 lbs since last week. THREE FREAKING POUNDS. And I can't blame that on Camy, she probably gained only about a half a pound of that. And here I thought weight gain was supposed to slow down at the very end. Pshaw. The doctor is not at all concerned though. I guess to him, 44 lbs in 37 weeks is no big deal, but in my world - that is NOT okay!!!
And all the good news:
No protein in my urine. Great BP - 116/60. Beautiful heartbeat. Still head-down. GBS negative, and...
wait for it...
We are now 2 cm dilated and 80% effaced! Woooohooo!
We have breast-feeding class tonight (yay!), and I pick up her cloth diapers tomorrow.
Things are lookin' good.
Can't wait to meet our sweet girl.
