38 weeks today!!



I am 38 weeks exactly today!  These pics were taken today, and man, I look huge!  I'm starting to get concerned with how big of a baby she may be, especially since I've now topped 40 lbs!  LOL!  I wonder if this will be the last blog entry before baby girl makes her appearance?  :) 

On Tuesday, November 9th, we had our 37 week appointment and everything was normal with my blood pressure, her heart rate, etc. I did fail the GBS test but that’s not such a big deal since I’ll get the antibiotics via IV when I’m admitted to the hospital. My next appointment is Tuesday, November 16th. Also on the 9th, we attended the Baptism class at our church that evening, so we are prepared in that department as well. We are hoping to get her baptized when my parents are here over Christmas vacation, but we’re not sure if Dan can get off of work the Saturday after Christmas. We’ll see how it works out but it would sure be nice to have some family down here for that!

I have been feeling great, with the exception of a few minor BH contractions that started this past Tuesday but have since stopped. If I haven’t gone into labor by Thanksgiving, I plan on cooking the meal like I normally do if I still feel this good! (Besides, maybe it will bring on labor!) My doctor is actually the on-call doctor for Thanksgiving and Thanksgiving weekend, so I am kinda hoping if I don’t go by Thanksgiving, that I will go on that weekend. Dan’s parents will be here the week of Thanksgiving, so that’s the main reason I’d like to go into labor by then, so they can meet her. However, she’s in charge so we’ll see!  :)
