Baby Girl,
Well, believe it or not you are still not here! While your daddy and I are very excited to meet you we are equally excited you have not come yet. This means you are still growing where you need to grow so that when you do come you will be healthy and strong.
I went to the doctor last Friday and she seems to think you will grace us with your prescense sooner rather than later. I got to come off my medication that keeps me from having contractions. Unfortunately, for about 2 weeks now I have been having contractions, so I guess the medicine wasn't working. We went to the hospital two Mondays ago and even though I was 70% thinned out and you were between a 0 and a +1, I wasn't dilating. This meant we didn't have to stay in the hospital and got to come home that night! Now that I am off my medication I am also off bed rest and am allowed to lead a normal life. I am able to get out of the house and finish up a few things for you sweet girl.
Your nursery is coming together, finally! Your crib is up, your bedding is in place, and we are slowly, but surely, getting things hung on the walls to make it look like the perfect room for you. Your bouncer, swing, pack n' play, and high chair are in place. I have had your carseat installed in my car and your daddy's car. The only thing missing is you! We can't wait to meet you and feel like it will be any day now (even though your daddy and I joke that you will stay in there until your due date).
I have become very uncomfortable when I sleep at night. It takes me forever to go to sleep and I wake up several times in the middle of the night. I can tell you're gaining weight because when I flip from side-to-side it takes a little while for you to "follow" me and get yourself comfortable. My fingers and feet are starting to swell and I am going to the bathroom it seems every 15 minutes.
Well, just a short update on what is going on in our lives.
Love,
Mommy
