37 weeks

She measures at 7 lbs. 12 oz. currently. Amazingly enough the doc didn't argue with me about inducing me. She says she is fine for now, but wouldn't want me to go past my due date.

I am actually kind of disappointed, I was planning on her wanting to induce so bad that I'd be having this baby next week and now I just wait. I'm a nut.

It's ok, since she still doesn't have a name anyway. We are still working on that.

Grama is planning on coming out on Aug 9. School starts on the 11th and I am due on the 17th.

36 weeks

Had my 1st non stress test last Friday because I'm old. I just go to the hospital check in and register for 30 minutes, then go get hooked up to 2 monitors, 1 to listen to heartbeat and 1 to check movement. That's 30 minutes of excitement right there. LOL. BORING. Plus, apparently I didn't eat enough because Baby girl was not cooperating, but she does not perform on demand. They finally got some movements out of her after buzzing her awake through my belly. Then off to get an ultrasound to check the amniotic fluid and make sure there is enough. Everything fine, so now I get to do it all over again, every Friday until I give birth. Yeah!!!

Had my regular check up today and the Physicians Assistant, says the doc has a note in the chart about possible induction at 39 weeks. I say Oh really? She told me we would just cross that bridge when we came to it, because she knows I DO NOT want to be induced. We again discussed as we do every single time this comes up that 1st baby inductions always bad but 2nd ones, much better. BLAH BLAH BLAH. I don't care what they say I am not buying it.

I go again on Monday for another ultrasound to check the size and weight again before my doc appt. so will know more then. I really don't see what the big deal is to induce me at 39 weeks which would be Aug. 10, which is a Sunday, don't see that happening, or August 11 which is no way happening as that is Ry's 1st day of school and I am not missing that NO WAY!!! I am due on the 16th, just let her be.

If she really wants to induce me, it can be on the 5th or the 8th, those are the only 2 dates that I am agreeable to. I'll let you know how that works out for me. LOL
So she checked my cervix, and there is nothing happening there, so this baby is not ready to come yet, she doesn't even have a confirmed name for Pete's sake!!!!!

Tink and very 1st non Grandma sleepover

My baby spent the night at a friends house last night. It was so strange not having her here. It's the first time sleeping at a friends house. After my doc appt today, I am meeting up w/ my friend for lunch and to get my baby.

We have her backpack all ready for school, that is all they said she needed. It is Hannah Montana. We went to Walmart last night after the movie to get her free 3D Glasses, for the concert/movie on July 26 on Disney Channel.

Finally, we have pics of the girls new Tinkerbell room. It was a lot of work for me and my Mom. I'll give Mr H some credit, but it was mostly us. LOL It's AWESOME, I love it, and I want to move in there. Please excuse all the clean laundry on her bed, but I am actually getting caught up on the laundry.

Beautiful Tink everywhere. Gorgeous purple walls! A big flying Tink on the ceiling and a super soft new Tink carpet. Oh, and the new leaf canopy that goes great w/ the room!!!

Baby update 33 weeks

So I went to the doc yesterday and she wants me to have another ultrasound in 4 weeks to check the size again. I was also going later in the day yesterday. The baby measures at 5 lbs. 10 oz. which apparently is about 1 pound bigger than normal at this stage. I am guessing there is no way she is going to not make me have baby girl early. She said we would cross that bridge when we came to it. :)

Everything else is great. Other than my aching back and not sleeping well, oh well it is all worth it.

Tha baby shower Steph and Mom threw for me was so much fun. Got a lot of great stuff and had a good time w/ friends and family.

The girls new Tink room is AWESOME!!! I want to move in there. I will post pics of it when it is complete. The painting is done, but we still have to move furniture back and some more decorations.

Got a great deal on a barely used expensive breastpump today from Craigslist. Had to buy all the new parts to go with it, but it is in such good shape and was only 75.00 for the pump, the parts another 40.00 or so, and it prices new at over 250.00.

Also, got a great play yard for baby girl to go in the toy room.
