Momma's little girl!

Whew... ok, so yesterday's exam proved that the contractions are there, but I am still "officially not ready." This is just so frustrating because I am so eager to meet this precious little person, and she is playing "hide and seek" with me. Yes, I know right where she is, but when she is placed on a fetal monitor, she moves! Lots! It's hard to keep her still. Yesterday, her little heartbeat raced from the 130s to the upper 150s (once, she was in the lower 160s!), and they said that happens when she is moving around (she is LOUD, too, let me tell you). Her little heart is a strong one!

Today, we go in for our regularly scheduled OB check-up, and treat upon treats, we get a new ultrasound, too! Now, I don't mean to rush the little sweetie, and she surely is that (hey, she let me sleep last night, that counts for A LOT!), but my doctor said he didn't want her getting too big (about a month ago, she was estimated to be over 6.5 pounds, and THEN, he said she would continue to grow, on average, between a half pound to a pound PER WEEK. This little angel could potentially be a 10-pounder by now!

So, wish us luck. We are so excited to meet our little one!
