I was hoping she would be born today bc it's April Fool's Day...alas...it is 6:15 and my contractions are fairly mild. Got about 6 more hours but probably not likely. Tomorrow is my birthday but I'm kind of hoping she isn't born then because I want her to have her own birthday but I'm not gonna stop her if she starts coming!
I had my non stress test, ultrasound and another membrane sweepage this morning. The tests were perfect and she is doing great in there! The midwife went to town on my membranes which hurt but hopefully will do the trick!
I asked her what was causing the rib cage pain because I just like to know stuff like that. I figured it was normal but wasn't sure exactly what it was. Little missy is pushing it out of place apparently. It makes perfect sense. Now if she could just come out so I could get straightened out it would be a great birthday present for mama :)
Andrew, mom and Griff came in for the ultrasound appointment. I've been promising them all an Elliot for so long that I figured I'd at least let them catch a glimpse of her cuteness. The tech switched it to 4D for us and I am so in love! I didn't think it would be a very clear picture at 40wks3days but it is and I just can't wait to meet her!
She looks pudgy but it could just be that she is totally out of room and all squished up in there.
Here is one I took with my phone...probably not the best quality but it works.
It looks like she has some full lips...no idea where those came from...
Griff pointed to the pictures and said, "Elliot!" When she printed out about 5 he said, "Lots of Elliots!"
Hoping for the real thing really soon!
