38th Week Doctor Visit

Well, I went back to the doctor today and he said I am making some progress, but have not dilated yet.

I go back next Tuesday.

I asked him what happened if I made it till the 6th and still no baby and he said I could induce then. So, if she isn't here by the 6th...maybe the 7th or 8th. He said we would talk about it at the next visit on Tuesday.

We'll just have to wait and see!

Our First Child...Wilson

Our first child is cute as a bug with lots of personality. He came into our lives two years ago and keeps us highly entertained.

John and I have been talking about what our little man is going to think of his new sister. John thinks he is going to be upset at first, but then he thinks Wilson will be protective of her. I am not sure how he is going to react.

He loves her room. He hides under her crib. He loves all of her stuff...especially her toys and socks.

I'll let you know if the weeks to come how he reacts to his world being turned upside down!

37th Week Doctor Visit

Well, I went to the doctor yesterday and he said that he thought she would come close to her due date. I am getting anxious. John is good at waiting. He is a lot more patient than I am. Even if she comes on her due date, that is only two weeks! The countdown has really begun!

I go back next Wednesday, so I'll keep you updated!

Finally...Ivy Kate's Room

Well, I have been working on getting this blog thing going for a while now, but here are the pictures of Ivy Kate's room. We sure hope she likes it!

We went to the doctor last week for our 36 week check-up and he said he doesn't think she is coming in the next two weeks, so I'll keep you updated.

We're getting so exctied as the time draws near!

Baby's Room and Last Doctor's Visit

Well, we have been busy trying to get everything together for Ivy Kate's room. The chair we ordered should be in next week. I am so excited to have everything start coming together. I will post some pictures once it is complete.

We went to the doctor last week and he said she is doing good. He listened to her heartbeat and asked if I wanted him to get the doppler, so I could hear it. I told him that if he could hear it and I could feel her limbs coming out of my abdomen...then I assumed she was doing good. We go back next Tuesday for a sonogram and we will find out how big she is.


Well, have a good night!
