Dr.'s Visit

Well, we had another Dr.'s appointment today. Had some good news and some news that well Abigail is just going to have to make up her own mind and QUICK!!!!!! Mama is getting impatient for her arrival. OK for the good news: Since last week (Thursday) I lost two lbs. and my iron went from 9.0 ~ 9.8... I have also dilated to 1 cm..... yeah; my body is starting to go to work... Now could it just hurry a little. He guesses her to weigh between 8 and 8.6 lbs

Bad news or OK news..... I am not effaced yet, and will not be induced this week unless she decides to come on her own. I am/was so hoping for a baby by Friday. So every one send their prayers, thoughts and wishes my way. If she doesn't come by Tuesday, May 27th then I will be admitted that night and induced Wednesday, the 28th.

This would be kind of ironic, in a way, if she was born on the 28th.... Brian and I married on the 12th of April, Brian's mom's birthday... If Abigail is to be born by inducing on the 28th of May then that is Brian's dad's birthday. I hope he feels wonderful about ''maybe'' getting a granddaughter on his birthday. I am fine either way ~ born of her own accord this week or by induction next week. It certianly isn't my call ~ it is mother nature's call on when I go into labor.

I go back this Friday (May 23rd) for another NST if she hasn't made her arrival by then....an NST reading of the baby is good for 5 days; I didn't know that before today.

From us ~ to you all, Hannah and Brian
