Another Prego Update

Again, I will apologize for not having pics to post this week.....the past few weeks have been more about keeping this baby from making an appearance than anything else. I've had help the past few weeks from my grandma, Matt's parents, and my dad and his wife. I'm actually expecting my dad again today in a couple hours.

I had an ultrasound on Monday to get an estimate of the baby's weight. I look smaller than my other pregnancies, but it's because I've carried extremely low the whole time. Anyways, the ultrasound looked great, and they estimate the baby's weight at 5lbs 12 oz....give or take 13 oz.....so it appears we're still on track. I also had an exam this morning, and to my relief, I'm still only dilated 2cm. My doctor is pretty confident that if I can refrain from over-doing-it for another week, that everything will be fine. She told me that after next Wednesday, I can "nest" and clean to my heart's content....but to also be aware that it will probably send me into labor! I will have to fight the urge to get back to my normal self and work myself to death, but I'll at least hold off until next Friday. Matt has a ticket to Thursday night's WVU game, and I definitely don't want to spoil that for him. However, if I'm at the hospital the night of the game, he can just walk back and forth from the game to the hospital and tailgate along the way!

Well, that's the latest news. I will try and do a little better blogging with some kid pics, but don't hold your breath!
