In Case You Are Wondering…..

I had my 40 week check up yesterday. I was told that I was in early labor, but that Kylie is head down but facing the wrong way which is PROBABLY why I’ve had so much early labor. They gave the option of breaking my water and hoping that things progress quickly from there. Since I am not having any medical problems that would necessitate messing with nature… I requested that we do a biophysical profile of the baby to see how she’s doing since I am post date. I got to see Kylie. She’s so cute… and getting BIG! I’m sure she’ll have teeth by the time she is born! ha. She was practicing her breathing, sucking on her thumb, and sticking out her tongue. She’s cute! She still has plenty of fluid around her and everything else looked really positive- so we declined the eviction notice at this point. We have been trying to avoid unnecessary medical interventions this whole time… why start now? My next appointment is Monday and we probably won’t decline if I’m still pregnant then. After 41 weeks the baby’s support system starts to diminish some and at 42 weeks even more. So we won’t want to wait longer than that…

I’m hoping that she comes today(as always)!!!

Here are some pics. They are bad…because I don’t feel all that well.
