Here are pics from today...at 36 1/2 weeks, but guess what? We had a GOOD report at the doc's this Friday! Baby has dropped, she is definitely "head down" and in position, and I am dilated 2 cm! Other great and encouraging news to share: doc believes baby will be small (maybe even under 7 lbs!!), and believes that 38 weeks may be a reality for going into labor! Yea!!! That would be right around Thanksgiving! And, we know - no "holding our breath" on that projection - but the thought of delivering early, possibly having a small baby, and maybe avoiding a December birthday are all exciting things to hear! So, we'll just continue to wait and see!!
Also today, our church had a lovely shower for us - some really sweet women gathered to pray for us, for the baby, and to bless us with gifts. It was really precious and I felt truly showered (and encouraged!) by a wonderful group of women so close to us here in Maplewood. Don't have any pictures from tonight...and I still need to get pictures up from Heidi's shower!
Stay tuned for more exciting updates...another doc appt in the middle of this week!
