Here are the last pictures we'll see of baby Remy in the womb...next time we'll have real live pictures. She was sucking her thumb the entire 10-15 minutes of the sonogram. We couldn't get a clear picture of just her face, but she's gained a lot of good fatty deposits and it looks like she's going to be quite attached to that thumb of hers!
At the weekly visit today I had effaced quite a bit more but still no dilation. I was sick 2 days last week and couldn't keep anything down...so I had lost a couple of pounds, but they weren't concerned. Blood pressure was good, her heart rate was normal. And actually when they were using the fetal heart monitor to check her heart rate she kept kicking the probe!
Monday night I had contractions about every hour-keeping me up all night. Dr. says that when they are every 5 minutes for 2 hours straight, that's when to come to the hospital.
We picked out a pediatrician and signed up for the cord blood banking, we've packed our bags and put them in the car, checked most things off our 'to do' list...in our minds we're ready to embark on this new challenge called parenthood.
I go on maternity leave as of Tuesday the 11th and my last day of school is the 13th, which is also Walker's last day of work before his 'paternity' leave. Now we've started counting down the days until our big, little Christmas gift arrives!

You can already see how beautiful your baby girl is. I'm so happy for y'all! Is it normal these days to get such advanced sonogram pictures?
