Short and sweet. He's growing well, she's THRILLED with my weight gain (or lack thereof... i gained a whole 6 ounces lol) I think i've gained 2.5 lbs in the last 6 weeks!!! SUPER happy with that. Baby is very low and his head is super low. She didn't act like she'll be real surprised if he comes early but we're still a go for the induction if he doesn't come before then. BP was alright, urine negative, next appt is 2 weeks from today and we do cervical checks from here on out...yippee.

If all goes as planned i have 3 total appts left...but it could be less!

I think i had my first real contraction today and that was fun...i wonder how being home will go?! Today was my last Monday of work!!! That is a cause to CELEBRATE!!!!

Anyone want to take guesses when you think he'll arrive?? Induction date is set for 10/19 at 38w6d.

First of all, what is your urine getting tested for?? Second, hmm lets see... I think 10/8 because it's a great date... and my friend had her baby that day 2 years ago.. so we'll see. Also, i bet you will be in target when your water breaks!

or at least i hope so! maybe you could give birth there and get gift cards like on 'where the heart is'. okay so i don't really hope you give birth there but you know what i'm sayin! Great movie! Holy crap! i feel like you JUST got your bfp! altho, i feel the same about myself.. can't beleive i'm already 5 months! and not that long ago i was saying how your time was dragging in the early 20's remember? Now i'm there!

I'm going with 10/18 'cause that's my anniversary date. It's a great day for a celebration.

hahaha jess, my mom said i'll probably be in labor in Target too...my home away from home!!

They test my urine every time for protein and to make sure i don't have a UTI or anything, but at this point mostly for protein with my BP issues.
