High in the Sky

High in the sky - that is how my doctor described where baby is right now. Meaning, he/she is perfectly content where he/she is and will likely not be making an early appearance. No dropping, no dilation, no nothing. I do keep hoping to hold out until the due date b/c that means a longer break into summer so my friend Jenny said "look, baby is already doing what you want!". Good point :) Makes up for all the madness my body is going through, I suppose. Dr. said next week we'll take another look but my last appointment will be on my due date so we'll likely be scheduling an induction b/c she's going to be out of town for Easter and said we gotta get that baby out before she leaves. So... at least we know we'll have a baby by Easter but Baby can still come any time he/she feels the need until then. Yet, I don't think he/she feels the need at all. Waiting for Spring to be officially here I think...

So as I said, it was our 2nd to last dr. appointment (in theory) last night and Mike came with me. He is seriously a clown in the room and I kept thinking that I might have to set him straight a couple of times in the labor and delivery room. He kept talking to the dr. about the Bucks (she's a season ticket holder and a huge fan). Mind you, he's talking playoffs while she is doing an INTERNAL EXAM on me... get the picture? ... and the baby was just kind of a side note ;) THEN, he proceeded to play his recording of me snoring for the doctor. Wonderful, thank you kind husband. She thought it was funny of course but said at least my snoring was regular so I guess that's a plus????

Mike's co-workers threw us a shower over lunch today complete with a pizza party and cake. People's generosity never ceases to amaze me. Such a gesture and we were just floored. This baby has yet to arrive and is already the most loved, blessed and spoiled baby around.

Baby supposedly weights at least 7 lbs right now and will not be a small one, per the doctor. 13 more days (more or less haha)!
