We had the hospital tour yesterday and our last ultrasound today.
The doctor wanted to check in on how the baby was laying because she wasn't positive. He/She is head down as it should be.
The doctor also wanted to ensure that my high normal blood pressure wasn't disrupting the placenta and the work it was doing, and that the baby was the right size.
We've been informed that the baby is full term sized. It is long- in the 80th percentile. The legs are in the 90th percentile for length. That's daddy. Not me. I have short legs. If it's a girl it will be one lucky girl.
The baby weighs somewhere around 7lbs already.

The hospital is very nice and the encourage everything I wanted to do- IE not laying down through labor, getting in and out of shower, going for walks, listening to music, calling friends and family during. I'm actualy excited, and a lot less worried than I was.
We walked from ward to ward, checking everything out while the lady told us things to expect, what to bring, etc.
As e left Nathan said to me, "Did you notice that we were the only couple in the group who was even remotely affectionate with one another? The rest of them stood there like they were all strangers who had made babies!!"
He was right. My reply was, "We've always had one advantage- We made this child in love. There are so many people out there who can't say that."


Everything is wonderful. Our child is beautiful.
