Update

Let's see, what's happened since last week? Well, the weekend was a pretty uneventful one. We stayed close to the house all weekend and got some things done around here, which was nice. Madelyn finally seems to be back to her old self, so that's nice!!

After my last appointment I kept having bad pains in my left pelvis area. Tuesday I called the doctor's office and they told me to come in. When they took my blood pressure, it was pretty high, but they think it was probably assocaited with the amount of pain I was in. Basically they did an exam and determined that Aubrey was sitting on a nerve that was causing the pelvic and leg pain. They took my blood pressure again, and although it had gone down it was still a little high, so they asked if I would consider being induced next week. Umm, YES!!

So basically I'm going to be induced next Wednesday, the 9th. I'm super excited to know that she'll be here in less than a week!! I went back today for an ultrasound, and everything looks perfect. She's moved more into position for birth, so I'm not having the extreme pain I was last week. My blood pressure was still high today, so they basically just told me what to look for in the next 6 days. Based on the ultrasound, they think she's about 6 pounds, 7 ounces right now, so my doctor estimated her to be around 7 pounds at birth. Of course, I''m not sure how accurately they can predict that!!

So, we have one more weekend to get the house clean and get things taken care of. I am also trying to soak up all the 1 on 1 time I have with Madelyn and really enjoy it. Last weekend we bought an upright freezer for the garage, so we'll go to Sam's this weekend and stock up on things. I'm also hoping to cook and freeze some meals this weekend.

Well, I hope everyone has a good weekend!! I'll try to post again before I'm a Mommy of 2!!!
