Max is here!

After a rough week, Max was born August 3rd at 1:30am. He was 7 lbs 5 ounces and 18 1/2 inches long. He's 12 days old now and I hate how fast he's growing! He's a VERY Good baby and a real joy to have around :) I missed having a baby to cuddle!

We have progress!!!

I was in L & D last night with contractions every 3 minutes lasting a good minute. I'm now dilated to 2 and still 50% effaced. Hoping it keeps up! I'm pretty crampy today so we'll see. They said I was most likely in early labor since they were so regular, but we all know that can last weeks LOL Hopefully not though! I will be 37 weeks tomorrow so he should be healthy :)

36 weeks 5 days

And Max can really come anytime now *LOL* My OB told me she isn't expecting me to make it much longer, and that they will no longer stop my labor! I'm sooooo ready for him to come out!!!!!

34 weeks!

34 weeks and counting!! We're REALLY hoping Max comes a week or two early (Maybe 3? LOL). I've been having a lot of contractions and pressure lately, so we'll see! Last night they were 5 to 7 min apart for over an hour :)

Here's a pic from today. I can't believe he'll be here in a few weeks!

32 weeks 2 days

I had my 32 week appt today. Everything is going good :) I'm up 2 more lbs so right at 20 lbs for weight gain which is awesome for me! The heartbeat was good (Once they got it, Max refuses to let them hear every appt LOL It takes about 10 minutes to finally get him to sit still so they can check it). My blood pressure and everything else is good too :) I'm still only 1 cm dilated and 50% effaced, but my cervix is now soft. Here's hoping for Max to come out around 37 weeks isntead of 40! LOL It'll be WAY too hot in August this year!!!!

Hot!!

Someone needs to take away the humidity here already! It's been nasty hot and humid everyday. Anybody wanna trade???

30 weeks 2 days!

I can't believe we have less than 10 weeks until Max is here LOL I'm sooo ready!! I had my 30 week appt today and all went well. I did find out that I'm already 1cm dilated and 50% effaced though! My ob however said not to worry, that he really doesn't think I'll go early which is good :) He said that he gives me a 5% chance of going early actually since I've carried the other boys to term. We're just hoping this one comes around 37 or 38 weeks LOL
I'm up 2 more lbs so a total of 18 lbs this pregnancy which feels GREAT! :) My blood pressure was great today too. I'm measuring right on (He said my uterus is measuring 32cm which is 32 weeks but he figures that as right on since it depends on how the baby is laying).
