I haven't updated for a few appointments, but honestly there isn't much to report most of the time. I had an appointment this morning and they did a growth ultrasound. The baby is growing quickly. He or she was measuring ahead at 37 weeks and weighing in at an estimated weight of 7 lbs, 1 oz. The abdominal cavity is measuring at 38 weeks, 3 days which is a good thing considering we want to add a little more inside once the baby comes out. The baby scored a perfect 10 out of 10 between the BPP and the NST. I asked about how long they would let me go and she said no longer than 39 weeks-ish. And then she said let's schedule an induction date- so now I have an end date in mind. September 16th (a Sunday night) I will go in and get admitted and start the induction process. More than likely, if the baby waits that long, he or she would make a grand entrance on September 17th. I will say that I have a bit of a gut feeling that this baby will come earlier, but who knows if that actually means anything. Last night I kept waking up thinking what if my water breaks, but it never did. I think it might be because my mom got into town last night and so now if it happens, we don't have to worry about taking the boys anywhere. I do think I might start a hospital bag and get a few things together so we are prepped.
Have a good night everyone!
