39 weeks...whew

Okay, we've officially made it to 39 weeks and we're steadily approaching our goal of welcoming little miss Makaeda Hope.


- Had on OB appointment on Monday where we were dilated 1cm and she projected Makaeda to be a big "little" girl at around 8.5 lbs already!! She told us that we probably won't wait until the 11th to schedule an induction if I do not go by our due date or by the 11th..now we're basically waiting until the 4th and scheduling induction right away. She also said we may actually have to do a Cesarean because I may not be able to handle it physically...but we're going to try!


- Had our 39-week ultrasound earlier today...and she's looking mighty cramped in there! The radiologist said from her measurements she doesn't believe Makaeda is as big as the OB says so we'll have to wait and see! Either way, we have the following picture to share for the time being...looks like she has her mother's fabulous lips! (Not that I'm conceited or anything...wink, wink)


Other than that, still playing the waiting game as patiently as we can. I start maternity leave next Tuesday, March 3rd and Reggie will be home for 2 weeks after we welcome her...
Until next time, Love to everyone!!
