I had my FINAL doctors appointment today. I had to see a different doctor b/c my doctor was off, but it was all good, because she was great. We really liked her (Chuck and I). Baby is measuring around 8 lbs, 5 oz, give or take a few oz either way. She's very long but they couldn't get an accurate length measurement since they can't actually stretch her out and measure. But I swear her thigh bone looked longer than my arm!!! Heartbeat was in the 140s. She is VERY head down, as in almost falling out. I have dilated to a "good 2" according to the doctor. And as she was examining me, she stopped quickly and said she almost broke my water doing it. She is confident that I am farther along than what they initially felt, as baby measured on average 40 weeks today. I am scheduled for induction on Monday at 5 am, but doctor seems thinks she'll be here before then. So we're now on full alert. Car is gased up, bags are in the car, camera batteries charged, phones charged, READY!
My feet are very swelled, flip flops are my new fashion statement! I hurt when I walk and my walk is very slow. We are both extremely excited, nervous, elated, ready, and scared to death, all at the same time. Is that possible??
Please pray for us all. It's been a long, rocky road, from the miscarriage, numerous tries, and the emotions of it all. It will all be so worth it, to hear her cry, to see her smile, to hold her close and to kiss her cheek. I can't wait. I can't wait. I can't wait.
My next post will probably be after I get home from the hospital and I will post pics as soon as possible. I wish I had a laptop and I could do it from the hospital, but no luck!!
Take care everyone and I'll see you when I'm a mommy!!!
