We had a dr. appointment Thursday and everything is still going well. Andrew was able to take the day off so we were able to enjoy the rain together with a nice long nap!! I had another ultrasound to determine size and between that and the belly measurement, this baby is a big one!! Baby is measuring 2 1/2 weeks ahead of schedule! I was 34 3/7 at the appointment and was measuring 37 weeks! Please say a long prayer that this little or big one comes early in December, or just start praying that the c-section goes well! :)
Dr. Shepherd thinks Gerber Baby is a girl and will arrive on 12/14 weighing 8lbs 4oz! I can't wait to see how close he is!
I was sick Monday and Tuesday (no fever or anything severe) but it is very difficult having your head in the toilet when you're 8 months pregnant! It's bad enough that I can't sleep, have reflux, a severe case of heartburn, oh and the swelling! By the end of one night at work my ankles triple in size! I'm sure I'm doing more than I should, but I hate having people do things for me!
Gerber Baby's room is basically ready! It got painted this week and everything got put in its place! Of course we don't have bedding, but we aren't getting that until after he or she arrives! Wednesday night Andrew and I were sitting in the baby's room and Shi came in more curious than ever! She was sniffing EVERYTHING and of course fell in love with a baby toy! We were laughing so hard! I am very interested to see how she will handle a baby brother or sister!
I also realized that I will be sitting the holidays out this year! I work everynight that there is a Thanksgiving planned and no matter what I don't plan on being at any Christmas, nothing against anyone!! Hopefully we will be enjoying our little one and home, but if not I'm sure that no one will want me there! If I'm ready now, I can only imagine what 5 weeks will bring! BUT feel free to bring leftovers!! ;) We are having the Gerber immediate family Christmas the first weekend in December and then Christmas with my parents will be sometime after Gerber Baby arrives! They all decided that they will just come to our place sometime (hopefully) Christmas weekend because Dad will be off and baby better be here!
My parents will be celebrating their 25th wedding anniversary on Monday, so we need to make arrangements with them in the mix of all the holiday plans to do something to celebrate!!!
