Aren't they creative....

I'm a watermelon this month! ha! And yes, I do feel as big as a watermelon. My doctor estimated her size between 6 and 6.5 pounds so we are right on track for an 8 pound baby if I deliver on or after my due date. Which is what we were expecting, as both Joel and I were both right around 8 pounds.

The waiting is getting much harder to do, since I'm so uncomfortable (read: not much sleeping going on these days) and I know that I'm already dilated to 3 cm. So really she could come at any time....I told Joel I feel like we should call these last two weeks "Reagan watch 2009".

Our bags are fully packed, the car seat is installed, her room is complete - all we need now is our little lady!

So keep your phones handy (we promise not to call in the middle of the night though) and check our blog or facebook often since we are taking our lap top to the hospital and should be able to post an update once she arrives. Until then I hope you all enjoy the last fruit update - its been a fun 9 months!

At week 37, your pregnancy is considered full term, meaning baby is likely to thrive after birth. Baby spends these last weeks in preparation for the outside world… meaning careful refinement of the blink, suck, inhale and exhale. Meconium, which you’ll probably find in the first diaper, is accumulating in the intestines. If (okay, as) you worry about giving birth, consider what it’s like for the little one. During the journey out of your womb, baby will produce more stress hormones than any other time in life.
