37wk. Dr. appt

I went for my ultrasound and everythings good. Conner weighed in at 6lbs. 15oz. and was facing up. I have to go back again next week now that I'm on weekly appts. and check his wt. again. The dr. said that he would definatly induce by 39wks. since Sawyer was so big. I was hoping he would choose to induce this week being he seems to be a great size but, he seems to think he'll have to be put on a vent. We'll have to see what next week brings. But, I guess at the latest he'll be here in two weeks.

Sawyer's new playhouse

Garrett's parents built a pirate ship for Sawyer and the new grandkids. Dana has wanted one for a very long time and they finally finished it this past weekend. Here are some pics. of Sawyer on it.

Getting closer

Well, this upcoming week is going to be my last week of work and school to have time to get things around before Conner gets here. So, it will be a busy week. I have to take a total of 3 tests, 2 drs. appts, work, school work and normal around the house things to get done. I'm sure this will cause the week to fly by. I've already completed all the homework to finish the semester since I'll be done 2 weeks before the offical ending of the semester. My two instructors are being nice enough to let me take my final tests early. It will be a great help. It will just have me hopping around at the end of this week and beginning of next. Oh well, I think it will be worth the extra time to rest and take my time to get the finishing touches done.

I'm getting closer to my due date and feeling that much more pregnant by the day. I feel like my belly has grown a lot the past week. Maybe it just struck me this week, I think Conner is going to be at least as big as Sawyer at his next weigh in at the next ultrasound. But, I'm always hoping for an actual newborn this time instead of a 3 month old right off the bat. I'll take whatever as long as he's healthy. Sawyer is anxious for him to get here. He asks when Conner is going to be here and I tell him and he always adds a week. Stinker! I think he'll be a good big brother and helper when Conner gets here. He does a really good job with his cousin Kaydense. I can just hope that he'll be the same with his brother.

34 wk. Appt

I had the appt. on Tues. Everything went well. I can't remember what I weighed at the appt. before so, I'm not too sure if or how much wt. I gained. Conner's heartbeat was in the 150s which is normal. He's usually in the 140s so that was alittle of a suprise. My belly is measuring small for the gestation I am. I measured 31wks. and at the time I was 34wks. 3 days. This puzzled the dr. He can't understand how I'm measuring small but, he's weighing and measuring big on ultrasound. I told him that I measured on time to just a tad small with Sawyer so, I'm not suprised. The drs. I had with Sawyer weren't sure where he fit in there. At my next appt. they will do the strep b test and start checking my cervix for any changes. The dr. said that he would like to see changes if we are going to induce on the 29th. Here's hoping! I don't know if I'm ready to be a mom of two, but I'm really ready to have Conner here.
