34 weeks!

Alrighty, NOW things are starting to get a bit exciting!! Yesterday was the 34 week checkup. Guess what we did....




We scheduled an induction!!!!! So for all of you who are getting super duper excited, Dorothy will be here (or at least well on her way) on or before JULY 29!!!

Dorothy is measuring right where she should be, heart rate sounded good and my b/p was good. AND I actually sort of packed my hospital bag the other day. The hubs and I were picking up and rearranging in our bedroom and I came across the bag of toiletries from our little vacation we took at the beginning of the month and so I decided that rather than putting them away I'd just put most of it in the bag I had designated as the hospital bag. That's using the old noggin, right?

I'm getting more and more excited about birth, and while I know I'll miss being pregnant, there's always next time (I HOPE!!) and I know she's going to be in good hands. Emily and Henry are getting very very excited as well. Although IDK if they're really ready, they're ready. No first time parent is ever REALLY ready, are they? Shoot, we weren't ready the 2nd time around, either!!! LOL! The important part is, I know they're going to be great parents, and they have a fantastic support system, they're not really high strung, but they care enough to worry, and they're very sweet. It's hard to believe we've only known each other for a year. It was just about a year ago right now that I emailed them and asked if they would be interested in seeing if we are a match. They were on vacation, so I didn't hear back for a couple of days. And it's been wonderful ever since!!

So that's this week's recap. Next appointment is on July 8, then after that I sstart going in weekly and there's only 3 weekly visits, as the 4th (which wuld be 40 weeks, AKA full term) visit would be scheduled on the day we are planning to induce (IF she's not here yet). So I'll catch y'all in a couple of weeks!!! Have a great weekend and fantastic 4th of July!!!
