40 Weeks

Today is the date, the due date. But, as most of us know it really doesn't mean a whole lot, just an estimated time of arrival. Things are still going well. Baby boy is still moving around and apparently is still quite comfy in his current surroundings. I do feel like he has dropped just a bit, just enough to make it a little more uncomfortable to sit. Contractions are still an everyday occurrence but not anything that is sending me to the hospital yet.

Yesterday was my 40 week doctor appointment. It looks as though the sky is 75% clear for landing with an opening now of 2 cm. So, really, not much change. If I make it to next Thursday (my next dr appt) then I will have to sit for a non-stress, stress test. Kind of confusing, but basically I go in and get monitored for an hour to see how active the baby is.

We are still looking very forward to meeting this little guy, hopefully very soon. I'm afraid that this little guy will be our biggest baby. Maybe it's mom's intuition but I'm thinking a 10+ pounder. I guess that is what I get for having such a comfortable uterus where he can camp out for 40+ weeks.
