34 weeks today :-)




Well, my doctor's appointment Monday went very well! I haven't dilated anymore. My first series of non-stress tests went pretty well too. I was monitored for contractions for about 20 minutes in which they also listen to the baby's hearbeat and watch for elevations when she moves. As always, GNugget was a champ!! Her heart rate still is a strong 144!! We did measure the amniotic fluid too and it was a little low at 8.6. I need to continue to drink water as much as possible, but it does feel like I am running out of room in there :) If it gets below 5 they will admit me and give me an IV. I asked Dr. Lambers if she thinks that we will make it to my induction date of 10/29 and she said probably not but thinks I will make it past 36 weeks and go into labor on my own. We are both very happy with this! We could have a baby girl within 3 weeks...or really, any day now, but hoping for at least 3 more!

Jimmy & his Mom, Gerry, painted the nursery this week and it looks incredible! Just waiting for the bedding to make it complete. We will probably wait to hang things on the walls until I can help. But it's looking great so far!! He's been working so hard preparing for our little girls arrival. I'm so proud of him!! He's going to make a great Daddy.

Stella & Phoebe are still my bed rest buddies and have been troopers. You can tell they get bored at times just like Mommy though :0)
