Baby Update

We went to the doctor again today and I'm maybe 1/2 a centimeter dilated. We also did a quick ultrasound to check on the baby's position. It is still head down and is hanging out on my left side. *Hurray!* He also saw that I have "good pockets of amniotic fluid" around the baby. I am really enjoying being "medically boring". All my numbers have been good and I only gained 2 pounds this week; without really trying I haven't really gained that much weight overall. The hard part will be to loose the non-baby weight that has accumulated over the past 4 years.

I was walking around WalMart yesterday and I'm pretty sure I felt a few contractions, perhaps that's where my 1/2 cm came from. :) I went walking again today and felt that I was walking fast, but in reality I have really slowed down my walking pace. I kept saying to the ladies behind me that they were allowed to pass me if I was walking too slow.

I've found recently that, with the exception of a few pairs of pants, skirts are more comfortable for me to wear. I think that for the most part it's because pants are either too high and give me a wedgie or are too low and fold over underneath my belly. Skirts on the other hand typically stay where I put them. I like the knee length skirts better than the long skirts because they are less restricting.

I also got my hair cut again, but this time it was more like a trim, I had a duck tail getting larger and larger at the back of my head and it just had to go. I have a girlfriend, that lives on the street perpendicular to mine, who just so happens to cut hair out of her home. So I walked over, she cut my hair, and then I walked home. It was awesome! Plus my hair looks really cute. :)


This is me today at 37 weeks and 2 days w/the new hair.
