Last doctors appointment...

We had what will hopefully be our last doctors appointment today. It was a doozy... I went in at 2:30 and ended up having to have blood work done before heading over to the hospital to have a Biophysical Profile (bpp) done. I didn't end up getting home until just after 6:00! At which point I was so tired that all I could do was change into my pj's and lay down. All I can say is that I am so glad that my Dad was here to watch Bella, so I didn't have to take her with me. That would have been even more insane! One good thing that came out of this appointment was that we scheduled an induction for Wednesday night (we go in on Wednesday so we can get started and then we will hopefully have her on Thursday). I am very excited that there is an end in sight! The BPP was checking to make sure that she is still thriving in the womb, which she is. So that was reassuring. We have to go have a Non-Stress Test tomorrow, so hopefully all goes well for that and we'll be right on track for Wednesday... yay!

Yay yay yay for an official end date! I will keep my fingers crossed she comes on her own before then, but if not, do your best to enjoy those last few days as a mother of one! (I would say enjoy those last few days of pregnancy, but pregnancy is misery.)

well, if she is going to be born on my birthday, there had better be a brindy, brin, rae...somewhere in the name! JK, I am actually excited to find out the name, since you guys keep that a secret. Hope all goes well. Have been keeping you in our prayers. You are awesome MelDoy.
