Everything turned out good at the doctor today. Good as in bad because that means the baby probably isn't coming today. The ultrasound showed that my amniotic fluid level was 20 (normal is 10-20). This explains why I haven't had any contractions, there is just too much fluid for my uterus to get some good squeezes in. I wish I could spring a slight leak... Baby's weight is estimated at 8.5 pounds. She has hair! Thank God because she has lots of bows. She is still a she - thank God again. People were always asking me, "Are you sure it's a girl? I would buy some boy clothes just in case." This isn't the 1970's people. Like the ultrasound tech said today - "If we can see all the chambers of the heart, I'm sure we can see if it's a boy or a girl." I love technology. She passed the non-stress test with flying colors. Again - yea!/boo! Don't get me wrong, I'm so happy that I was able to cook this baby to full term. I'm glad that she will be a normal sized baby. I'm just getting so bored. I can't imagine keeping ourselves occupied for another long weekend... If I'm still pregnant on Monday I go back to the doctor to pick a birth date!

I remember going to the hospital for a stress test, with my bags packed! I knew I was in stress! Then found out it was about the baby, not the mother! So sad to go home! Healthy babies are a gift! Love.
Let's hope you spring a leak this weekend on your own! :)
Gosh I hope she decides she is ready this weekend!I was induced with both my pregnancies so I don't know how it would be to sit and wait. I wish I did wait to go on my own. She is almost here!
Love reading all the latest about the baby -- it can't be long now. We are all so anxious, take care xxoo gmadar
