38 weeks today (March 3, 2015)

So I had my 38 week doctor's appointment today. Woohoo!!!! 14 days left unless she decides to come sooner!!!!!! I am still 3cm dialated, but I am also 70-80% effaced and she is at a -2! But she has dropped. She is head down and with any luck I can meet my baby girl this week! I am so miserable this last month with the aches and the pains, but its ok. I know.it will be super worth it to see my son see his baby sister an me to finally meet my daughter! Does anyone do "big brother, big sister" gift baskets for the older siblings to include them in the birth?

My sister put some coloring books and other cute toys and her other two sons said they were making pictures for the baby when he came out. So i always thought that was a cute idea

I got my kids a big brother and big sister shirt. Also each a big brother big sister book. I have also heard of getting them a disposable camera of their own to take pictures themselves.

I am not sure lol I have heard of the idea, but not what to really DO. Like he has a shirt that says "I'm the big brother." But that is all.
