38 and 6/7 Weeks...

We'll be at 39 weeks tomorrow. We went to the Dr. today and everyone is doing just fine. The Dr. said that Brenda's cervix "is soooo ready." I suppose that is a good thing because I, like Brenda's cervix am soooo ready.

Week 39..."Your baby weighs a little more than 7 pounds. By this point in your pregnancy, crown-to-rump length is about 14.4 inches. The baby's total length is 21.5 inches. The illustration on page 327 [see below] shows a side view of a woman with a very large uterus and her baby inside it. As you can see, she's about as big as she can get. You probably are, too!"

No kidding!!!!

We asked the Dr. today when we needed to call her. Her response was that we shouldn't waste any time calling her and that when the contractions were 5, "not three" minutes apart and strong, that we needed to go straight to Labor and Delivery.
Yeah!!!!!!

Good luck to Rob, Maw and Granny Smith who all have days picked out this week on the OMBBBPC! I'm on "spring break" this week and will be able to get Brenda to the hospital quickly if needed. Make sure to keep your cell phones handy this week as we are gearing up for a spectacular event!
