28 days left till D-Day! I am ready to meet her NOW. Mom wants her to wait until at least the 18th since she flies in on the 17th. Dad wants her to be born on my birthday (4-2) so that he can be here....that may very well give my back permanent damage so, sorry dad but I'm hoping she's not born that late :)
I read that movements usually decrease at 36 weeks....this little monkey must be like me because she's like, "Oh yeah! I'll show them!" This morning when I got up with Mr. stay up till midnight and wake up at 6, she literally used my ribs as a jungle gym and my bladder as a trampoline and went to town for about 5 minutes. I even think I heard a tiny little, "Take that, 36 weeks!" arise out of my belly button. She's fiesty!
Anyway, I have my appointment tomorrow and we'll do the strep B check, cervical exam and all that jazz. I'm hoping to hear about some dilation but I think mom and dad are not :) I would love for all of the grandparents to be here....but....my back says otherwise.
Here are some oh so flattering pictures of my 9 month belly: {thick with sarcasm} But I do love it. Part of me will really miss being pregnant but I just CANNOT wait to see her and cuddle and kiss and nurse her!
Griff wanted his "pitture" so he ran to where we were standing and grabbed his belly....little cutie. He had a checkup for the adoption yesterday and when I put him on the exam table he laid down and lifted up his shirt to bare his belly....I think he has been to one too many midwife appointments. I think he was disappointed that we didn't put some gel on there and hear a heartbeat :)
I'll update on the appointment tomorrow! Time to meet some friends for breakfast in Seattle! Hoping Griffin will sit still long enough for me to get a sentence or two in :)
