36 weeks.....

I am now at 36 weeks and have one month left to go til my due date (or 28 days)! I am doing good but very much ready for Adeleah to come and to not have her in me anymore. :) I think that by next weekend things can start getting going and hopefully I won't make it to my next doctors appointment on the 19th. We went in for a check up on wed and all was good, she is head down and they think she is about 6 lbs and in the higher oz's. Besides that I can't really say much more because with the navy they don't actually check you until 38 weeks. So yes I don't go back in til the 19th and after that (unless I go over my due date) I won't be checked until I am having her. Isn't the navy great! But I can't say too much because at least it is all free, no bills to pay for having her. So if anyone has any tips for bring on labor I would love to know them.

So besides the waiting game that we are now doing. Tuesday night the Young Women gave me a baby shower, that I didn't know about. It was good and we got some more things to help us be ready. So to all the leaders and girls, Thank you for a good night and for the gifts.
Today we got our tax's back!!! And so I order our cloth diapers and my "g" tops for nursing. Next week I am going to go and get a lot of the things we still need, which when I made the list up Gabe couldn't believe how long it was. He is still getting used to the idea that she will need more then a few outfits a week. More like a few a day:)
Thats about all thats going on here, I will let everyone know if anything happens. And everyone just think happy thoughts of labor for me:)

I'll hope for your sake that she comes early...as near to 37 weeks as possible! :)

And how fun that the YW threw you a surprise shower! I'm glad things are going well for you despite being ready to be done. (I think you always feel done by the time you reach 36 weeks.) :)

Can't wait to see pictures of your little girl!

That stinks that the military won't let you be checked until later! That's all that gets me through the last few weeks is knowing that something is happening! I have this theory that you have to get really uncomfortable to look forward to labor! I will be sending you going into labor thoughts! Good luck with everything!

This is so exciting! You are having a baby!! Sorry, but I have no ideas on how to induce labor faster. But hopefully it will come soon and then you will put up lots of pictures of her. By the way- where did you get the background for you blog? I love it!
