05/31/06 Checkup (39 weeks and 2 days)

1 Mississippi, 2 mississippi, 3 mississippi.......38 mississippi, 39 mississippi, and we're almost there.

So we had an ultrasound today to check for fetal positioning. Speck is "seated" in the right direction and all vitals seem good. We almost got a picture but then speck got ancy and decided not to pose for the camera anymore. No worries because speck will be welcomed into the world pretty soon.

After the ultrasound we headed to Doc Jeanie's office. All of mommy's vitals were checked and they seemed good. Blood pressure was 124/60, weight a bit high, but we'll worry about that later, and of course Sugar levels looked good too. Speck's heartbeat was measured in the 130 bpm.

Now when Doc Jeanie "checked" mommy (so to speak) she said that speck doesn't seem to want to leave on her own and so the verdict was, if mommy does not go into labor on her own before monday Doc jeanie suggested coaxing speck out of her quarters.

After a little back and forth with Doc Jeanie it has been decided that the fateful day mommy goes into the hospital is gonna be 06/07/06 Wednesday.

Next scheduled appt is Wednesday 06/07/06. Speck and mommy will be admitted into the hospital soon after.
