Getting close!!!

hey girls! hope everyone is doing well and getting things in order, since we will soon have our little ones here! I went in for my weekly BPP today, and no changes whatsoever in cervix - which aftger so many contractions i was shocked.. however she is getting HUGE at the beginning of 36 weeks she is 7 1/2 lbs!!!!!!    i cant believe how big she is!!! even though it can vary and be inaccurrate of course, they measured multiple times from different angles on ultrasound and by feel, and they really do think she is that big! crazy!  at least we wont be goign full term! i am hoping for beginning of not next week but next!!!! whooo we are getting there! : )

wow! that is big! geez i would hope you wouldnt go full term, that would be one big little girl! LOL! my growth u/s from the other day said 5lbs 8oz, which was a few days shy of 36wks. sorry no change in the cervix for you. i went to the dr yesterday and i guess my fuid is low, it was at 5cm, best is 10cm. so i just have to make sure shes moving regularly and if not go into L&D. its kinda scary, i dont go to my last NST til monday so i hope everything is ok til wednesday when shes born! i'll be a cleaning freak this weekend, i just about got everything ready. i would say you dont have too much longer either if shes getting that big- cant wait!

I wish I only had 6 days left!!!! that is so so so exciting!!!!  I know what you mean though - have you stopped your asprin yet?  I will be stopping mine next thursday - so that we can officially go  the week after that - she said if my cervix and everything starts showing signs that we are progressing we will induce early... otherwise if no change in that, we might just be having a c -section - which with a 9lb baby i'm fine with that haha! apparently my pelvic bone really angles down low.. so we just wait for now! I"M SO Excited for you next week! - but i am going to be so nervous when i stop the asprin as well! keep me updated! : )

[nickswife]

hazleyez- thanks! i will post pics asap, it will be after i get home which im hoping is saturday. hopefully your 6 wks will fly by!

bny- i am stopping the aspirin 2 days before, thats what my dr said. so you are getting induced a week from next thursday?! thats not far away honey! our babies will be a week apart.

I'm getting a bit nervous because my son was born in week 34. I am 34 weeks today. I know how much he weighed so it makes it more real. He was 5 lbs 7 oz. So, I'm sure my boy is about that big at this point as well, even though he feels bigger. Oh, and I have yet to see an ultrasound weight guess be all that accurate so I wouldn't count on big or small babies based on those measurements (: Anyhow, we are all so close. I just started working 4 hour shifts today, instead of 8 so my maternity leave has officially, partially started. Exciting!!

I'm waddling around like I AM 40 weeks.  I feel like such a winey person but I feel like my legs and even arms are 100 lbs when I go to do/lift things.  Having a 16mo old and 3 yr old w/a DH that's out of town for a week doesn't help ESPECIALLY in this 93 degree weather, HOT!!  I just wish I could take something for this fatigue :)
