Weeks 36 and 37!




     The weather was perfect this past Sunday!  I was 36 weeks and 5 days and decided I needed some exercise.  The pups loved our little walk.  By the end of the loop, Callie and I were dragging.  We probably should have taken a shortcut but we survived. 

     On the 1st, my wonderful co-workers gave Baby Spencer a shower.  Between the two showers we have had, we are stocked up and ready for Spencer's arrival.  I don't think I will need to buy any diapers, wipes, or clothes for a while!  I'm so excited about both the practical and the fun gifts we have received.  I hope to post pictures of both showers soon.

     October 2nd was my 36 week appointment.  Let's just say I wasn't quite prepared for the whole process.  I'll spare you the details.  Dr. Salas did say I was 1cm dilated, 50% effaced, and Spencer is low and ready to go!

     Yesterday was my 37 week appointment.  I've progressed to 2 - 3 cm.  She said she doesn't expect him within the next week (which is fine with me).  I have hit the 30lb mark.  Maybe he weighs around 7lb and the placenta weighs 23lb.  Wishful thinking right?  For the first time this entire pregnancy I have a stuffy nose.  It's been impossible to breathe out of my right nostril for the past two days.  I shouldn't complain though.  I really have had it pretty easy!  Anyway, hopefully next post I will have pictures of Spencer's nursery and both baby showers....
