The clock is running down on this pregnancy. Where did the time go?
I must say I am truly blessed! To have been pregnant for nearly 9 months and not have any trouble has been the greatest blessing for David and I. Not to say moving around hasn't become more difficult and sleeping...! That has become near impossible with Carpal Tunnel running through my hands... Oh well, couldn't get off scott free, I guess. Walking up and down stairs has caused me to become a mouth breather and putting on sock and shoes is becoming more like an Olympic sport. That's okay David has been getting good practice putting on socks and shoes for a girl now. Pull the tongue out before you tie that shoe. :)
I had an ultrasound last Tuesday and the baby looks to be 7.5 pds already. Lets hope the tech is right and not way off like they were with my sisters pregnancy...7.5 pds turned out to be 9.9 OPPPPSSSS!
The doc expects our baby girl to arrive this week or next. She doesn't see me going to full term since last week I was already effaced(lining of the cervix begins to decrease making way for cervix to open) From the ultrasound they can tell she has some hair on that pretty little head. It exciting to imagine but I have to admit I am a bit nervous. If babies grow like they say they do at this point we're in for a big girl. I am a bit more at ease since we now have a Doula. She seems wonderful and a blessing. Katie Horner is her name and she has been helping coach couples through deliveries for years. She will be in the delivery room with us, calming me down. :)
So I have another appointment tomorrow at 11am. Hopefully all goes well again! Thanks for the prayers!
