Any day now?

Monday I went to the Dr. for my 37 week appointment. I go every week now. She examined me and said that I am 1.5 cm dilated and 60% efaced. Austyn's head is down (she took a little while to flip) and pushing against my cervix. She said everything looked good and that if my water broke or I had contractions every 5-7 minutes that she would see me next Monday. I can't believe that she could be here at any point now. I still have a few things to do to her room and around the house to feel prepared but I'm very ready to meet her. Justin keeps telling her to come out and play but she is just playing inside for now. Yesterday she moved around a lot but today she has had longer periods of rest. I guess I will just have to be patient for now.

6 Weeks to go

It's strange that half the time I feel like I've been pregnant forever and the other half I feel like time has flown by. I look forward to meeting our precious baby girl in the next few weeks but for the time being I'm trying to soak up the alone time Justin and I still have.
Wednesday we went for our second try at the 4D ultrasound. Justin wasn't able to be there and his mom wasn't feeling well so both of my grandmas got to come. I hated that they couldn't be there but I was glad Austyn's great-grandmas were able to come. Austyn was sleeping during the ultrasound and didn't want to move her hand from in front of her face. After having me roll from side to side a few times and bouncing the wand on my tummy the tech finally got her to uncover her face. She had some shadowing from her foot that was still propped up on her forehead but we were still able to get several good pictures. It was amazing to watch her move around and know that soon I'll be able to love on her.
