2 weeks and 3 days away!

So, I had my regular weekly doctor appointment today. Everything looks good. Baby is in position, and has been for the past month at least. Heartbeat sounds great - 142 beats per minute approx. Feet swelling has gone down tremendously since last week, so I no longer have to be taken off work early, which is good... Now we just wait some more. She did not check to see if I've dilated any this time around, but she will at next week's appointment if I haven't gone into labor yet. We can't wait!

I've experienced an increase in Braxton Hicks contractions, which hopefully means that time is much closer! Doctor said baby can come any day now, and we hope that time is near. She's offered to induce if I wish to do so a week before my due date (official due date is 7/12/09), but I would prefer to let things flow naturally this time around. I did not get the opportunity to experience labor on my own with Annjulia since we had to induce at 37 weeks due to low amniotic fluid. So, we'll just wait until she's ready to come.

I talked to Annjulia again earlier today. I am so glad she was able to spend some time with her big sister this time around!!! It had been way too long since they last saw each other. It sounds like she's had an awesome time. They were visiting Hollywood today, so I am sure they are having a blast. I can't wait to see her tomorrow! Just another 24 hours and she'll be home.

Have you had a chance to check out the movie The Hangover? You must! Tito and I went to see it yesterday and oh boy, was it a good laugh! We're planning on checking out Transformers II this weekend and perhaps squeeze in a couple more activities before baby comes. We're just having a blast.

That's it for now! We will continue updating you guys on any new happenings. Hugs to all!

  1. I loved, loved, loved Transformers 2, but just a word of caution; if you plan on taking AJ, there is a fair amount of cursing (and exploding stuff), afterall, it is a Michael Bay film, so be advised...yall can't go corrupting a perfectly angelic child!!!!
