test results

Forgot to add one piece of news to the 37 week appointment post... The doctor told us that I do not have Group B Strep, so I will not need those antibiotics during labor, another piece of good news. No other news as of now... let's hope for some good news at my appointment a week from today!

37 week appointment

Brad and I went for my 37 week appointment yesterday. I have good news and bad news...

Good news is I lost a pound, bad news is that I haven't made any progress as far as the cervix goes. I know that can happen really quickly and for all I know I could be dilated now even though I wasn't yesterday afternoon. So, I guess I shouldn't really call it bad news, it just isn't good news yet. I had quite a few Braxton Hicks contractions last night. I am considered full term as of today, so the little man can make his entrance when he sees fit! My OB will be out of town a few days next week, so let's hope he doesn't decide to make his entrance then! Our next appointment is Friday morning, June 4.

Dear Landry,

Daddy and I are all ready for you and we can't wait to meet you! Please come soon!

23 days

WOW! I was just looking at my The Bump account, which tells you how many weeks and days pregnant you are and how many days to go until your due date... I am 36 weeks and 5 days, which is crazy enough!... but then it said 23 days to go! That is crazy and I am so excited to meet my sweet baby boy! We have our 37 week appointment tomorrow afternoon followed by a tour of the labor and delivery area of our hospital. I will update again after that! Pray for progress :)

36 week appointment

I had my 36 week appointment today. The Dr. did the Group B Strep test and I will find out the results next appointment, one week from today. The doctor said that Landry's head is in position and all of that is wonderful. I have not started to dilate yet. She did not mention anything about effacement or station either.

After the appointment we went across the street to the hospital, got preregistered with admissions and saw some of the OB area. But, since so many people had their babies yesterday and today (awesome for them!) the rooms were full so we couldn't see inside a room. We met the head OB nurse and she asked us to come back after our appointment next week, preregister with OB and get a tour from her then. She was very nice and I think I will feel little more comfortable when the day comes since I have met some of the nurses. We are lucky enough to have made friends with the hospital administrator through 4H and I am hoping since he was showing us around and introducing us as 'his friends Brad and Chyla' the nurses will remember that and take extra special care of us! :)

Are you nesting your car?

Well I'm pretty sure my nesting is in full effect now. I decided to install the car seat base in my car today... and then realized that my car was WAY too dirty to put a baby in! So, I decided to break out the vacuum and disinfecting wipes. Brad walked outside about halfway through and asked me, "Are you nesting your car?" I replied, "Yes, I believe I am." About two hours later, my car is vacuumed, disinfected and the car seat base is successfully installed. The car is now on the list of things ready for Landry's arrival! Now if I could get my back to stop hurting long enough so I can clean up the house AGAIN!
