Baby #3 - 37 weeks

I went back to the doctor this afternoon - technically 37 weeks 5 days. I saw Dr. Bluementhal - (my main doctor and the one who delivered Riley). She saw me and asked why they were doing Ultrasounds and NST's. She said she really didn't think they were necessary even though Dr. Brown ordered them. Well, I hate when doctors don't agree but at this point I think they aren't really necessary either.

But I did get to see Blake before I saw her. He still had his head down really far and it was hard to see his little face but I got a few peaks while the Ultrasound Tech was measuring fluids and stuff. It's been fun to see him the past few weeks. We did set an induction date this week with Dr. B. We set it for 7am on August 23rd (the day after Avery starts 1st Grade)!!

I am feeling really ready to meet my little man. I am very uncomfortable while sleeping at night. In fact, I've had lots of what I think are contractions throughout the night but nothing that ends up being consistent. I am uncomfortable sitting for too long and standing makes me really tired. :) But I am so thankful for this time. I am trying to sit here and enjoy that the house is quiet. I am not changing diapers and I'm not aching from all the "after effects" that come from delivery. I know soon enough he will be in my arms and I will really be tired! haha

I must say the girls are being so sweet with my belly. Every time Riley sits next to me she will rub my belly. I don't even think she knows she does it most of the time but it's so sweet. She already calls Blake "Blakey" and talks to my belly all the time. I know she is getting anxious for him to arrive as well. Avery is precious as well. She is so good at giving me hugs and kisses every night or whenever we leave each other and then she immediately kisses and hugs my belly. I love how sweet they are and I know that their love will only grow as soon as Blake arrives. :)

We can't wait to meet you little man and see who and what you look like! xoxo
