Important information to win the pool :)

So...we had one of our last appointments yesterday with our midwife and she gave me the due date, his approximate weight and length.

Feel free to offer me any amount of baked goods or Big Spoon yogurt to get the inside info and win the $$$.

YA RIGHT! Believe me, I tried to get the inside scoop so I could vote on the pool and win :) BUT when I asked her what she thought about his due date, she literally laughed at me and said "now Joanna, I cant predict that!"

All I can say is: I tried. I knew she couldnt give me anything exact, but was hoping for a round about. At least. Everyone I see says "could be tomorrow, could be a week after your due date..." All promising answers that I love to hear :) But really, whats my hurry. I am enjoying sleeping in these days!

One thing I can say is that she touched his head during the exam. I know, sounds creepy, but it was totally cool. I cant believe he is actually that low. Another thing she said was that, although he is head down, he is facing the wrong direction.

So now I have to do these swirl dances and lay on my side and literally try to push him in the right direction or I am headed for BACK LABOR CITY! Which I hear is AWFUL!

Another thing I can say is that she gave us some new numbers about cm's and effacement...one of which has changed quite a bit since our last appointment.

Like someone said in the comment section...its weird to think you are just walking around and your body is doing all this work that you cant see. And pretty soon it will just be time.

Crazy.

So now I just wait. And watch movies and TV. Go on little shopping trips to pick up last minute items and eat like a pig :) Yum.

See below for new pictures.

Hope you are all doing great! Oh and congrats to Anne and Kirk...they just got married last weekend! Yiippeeee!!!
