One of Tom Petty's greatest comes to mind right about now as I'm approaching the last 3 weeks (or less) of my pregnancy. I've started going weekly, and had my first physical exam this past week. The results: I'm dilated to 1, cervix is soft, and baby's station is still up there (as if it moved away from her when she checked me). She said it could be anytime now given my cervix, she also estimated the baby to be 7-7.5 lbs, while I don't hold her to it-she was right on w/ Laura so I know she has a pretty educated guess:).
I'm also happy to report that the headaches I had about 3 weeks ago have subsided as I began seeing a chiropractor. So besides some lower back pain and the usual late pg complaints-things are going pretty well.
Summer is wrapping up quickly, and I have to say that I'm quite surprised how quickly it went considering I was home all summer. I really enjoyed spending the days with the kids whether it was taking a trip to find a pool, new park, or just stay at home-it was fun to watch them enjoy themselves. I'm not sure what the next few months is going to bring in with regards to a job-but I do know that I appreciated and enjoyed every moment I had w/ the kids this summer.
Alex will be starting 4k this year which I don't anticipate any problems, since the 3k program he attended last year prepped him really well. While he enjoyed the summer, I think he's looking forward to the start of school as well to some routine, and mental stimulation.
This past weekend was our last weekend up north for the summer cause I didn't want to get too far from home within a month of being due. We finally had the cabin to ourselves, and also took up my mom, and nieces who were home visiting from Colorado. They enjoyed a horse back ride, go carts, Laura enjoyed a pony ride, swimming at the lake, and smores. We all enjoyed our last hurrah, or at least til the baby comes:)
