Baby.....come out, come out any day now!

Helloooo people!!!

Ok, so after getting COMPLETELY wiped out from my baby shower and having to take a day off of work to re-coup and then finally getting a really good night of sleep last night I am feeling great!

I had a check up today and I am only about 1 1/2 cm dilated. My blood pressure is still great, the baby is still head down, heartbeat continues to be strong. I have gained 18 pounds total- that may have something to do with my recent infatuation with donuts and Little Debbies... *sheepish grin*
The doctor also hooked me up to a monitor to be sure the baby is doing ok since movement has slowed-I think it is just because of running out of room- which is what the doctor also said and of course baby was fine- here is a pic of me hooked up- yes I was bored!



and here is the paper tracking the heartbeat and movement..



So my next appointment is on Tuesday, if I have not had the baby by then they want to schedule for me to be induced the following week. SO- if I do not have the baby they will want to induce me May 5th- that date may be negotiable but that is the word for now...

I did not really get a belly pic from the shower so here is a 39 1/2 week pic.




So that is about it for now. House renovations continue- we had some concrete guys come and re-do our front walk- we now have an even sidewalk and steps! We are going to put on a new porch and a new front door so I will post pictures once the porch is done.

Ok so I have nothing else interesting to say. Everyone keep us in your prayers that this baby comes before they want to induce me! Until next time!
