No baby yet...

Another doctor's visit today but no progression for this first-time mom. The doctor thinks that it will be at least my due date and he may even let me go over a week. My weight is good (lost another pound) and my blood pressure is good, so he feels like I can definitely go until the 28th or after. Every day I update everyone saying "No baby yet". Can't wait to be able to say, "We are on our way to the hospital".

Danny's office has started a pool on when Baby Daniel will arrive. My office is betting on when I will return to the office (no one is giving me longer than 4 weeks LOL). Danny bet on tomorrow, looks like the Dad doesn't even have a clue...

Anyone want to make a guess?

And the coutdown begins...

Doctor's visit went well today. He says that I am progressing like a typical (textbook example) first-time mom. Looks like it will be about 2 more weeks before Baby Kirkman arrives. Everything else looks good so we just have to wait. Stay tuned...

Just Waiting

We had our final ultrasound today. Baby Daniel is measuring at 7 lbs. 4 oz.(bigger than 72% of babies at this stage); I hope the doctor is a little off with his calculation. :) That's a big baby! He is ready to arrive according to the doctor. Everything looks good and he thinks I am ok to wait until my due date but he said that he would definitely not let me go any longer. At my next visit, if I am progressing favorably, they may allow me to go into labor or induce me at 39 weeks. He could come at any time. We are ready!!! Stay tuned...
