01.18.2010

Our doctor's appointment on 01.14.2010 was interesting and exciting. The doctor said that I have dilated some and that Jaxson has moved down between my pelvic bones, which is a good sign. His heartbeat was good. I was having a lot of back pain on Wednesday and Thursday and the doctor even said "Wow, you look miserable." :) Emmett made sure to tell him that he was the only person that could say that and get away with it! We talked about the 29th and he said I would arrive at the hospital at midnight on the 28th and he would come in around 8:00 a.m. to break my water and I would get the epidural then. He said we should have a baby between 12-5 p.m. YAHH!! My next appointment is at 8:30 a.m. Wednesday, January 20. My doctor is "on call" Wednesday so he wanted to see me that day just in case I've progressed more than expected and Jaxson decides to come early!

We had a long 4 day weekend that involved lots of work, cleaning, nesting and walking! I think Moma was trying to walk him out of me on Saturday :) We shopped from 10 a.m. to 6:30 p.m. on Saturday...but we got a lot done! We exchanged all of the duplicates and bought the things we still needed. I learned a life lesson- never go back to Toys R Us! Sunday involved more shopping and buying...we took today to clean. I finally feel prepared for Jaxson to get here. We installed the car seat into my truck which was quite an experience! I expected it to fit much tighter and to not move AT ALL but it doesn't quite work like that...Emmett's patience wore very thin with the car seat.

We have the last child birth education class tomorrow night- we are suppposed to tour the labor & delivery floor, doctor's appointment Wednesday and then my parents will be making a trip up on Friday night to spend the weekend. Only 7 days of work left for me!!!
