39 Weeks!

Today I am 39 weeks pregnant!

I had my 39 week appointment today. I am 1 cm dilated and 60% effaced. My midwife said that the baby's head is really low and that she feels "smaller than average" and will probably be about the size of Kaylin (she was 6 lb 8 oz). She stripped my membranes in hopes that the hormones will do their job faster. We'll see how that goes.

I put a poll on my right sidebar. You can vote on when you think I will have this baby. The poll closes on Thursday the 3rd at 11:59 pm. If the baby comes before the poll closes, don't change your vote! :-) If you want to be more specific, like a time of day, then put it in the comments. In case it makes a difference, Kaylin was born 3 days early and at my 39 week appointment I think I was 2 cm dilated. My official due date is December 7.

I put up some Christmas decorations today, including our stockings. Kaylin was so excited. She was quite distraught that "baby sister's" stocking doesn't have an initial like everyone else. She kept saying, "There's no letter! What are we going to do?" She decided that we should put an "S" on the stocking for "sister" since the baby doesn't have a name yet. We'd better get on that.

You're the cutest pregnant lady I've ever seen. And Kaylin is the cutest (almost) 3 year old! She's such a smarty pants. I can't wait till "S" gets here!!

Oh Bri, I LOVE you pregnant. You are so cute. I can't wait for little "S" to get here either. I'm sick of calling her baby girl! And thanks for the comments on my blog- just remember that YOU are my crafty inspiration. Seriously!
