I honestly hoped we would have Luke here on the outside to update you with but he seems to be getting Fat and Happy inside Momma's belly. I am going to the Dr. every week now, and all was good. SO at 37 weeks I had a 120/80 B/P, pulse of 101, no weight gain from last week, but am now up to 3 full cm dialated. Luke's at 149 bpm heartrate and in a good position to deliver.
Here is the update via babycenter.com
Your baby is now considered "full term," even though your due date is three weeks away. If you go into labor now, his lungs will likely be mature enough to fully adjust to life outside the womb. Your baby weighs 6 1/3 pounds and measures a bit over 19 inches, head to heel.
We have been getting Luke's room ready and spending some good time with Noah as a family of 3. It won't be much longer that we can give him our full attention. He has decided to start cutting his 2 year old bottom molars this week so he is sleeping really well at nap time and waking up a lot at night. He wants Daddy all the time now, not sure what this about (perhaps he knows that Luke is making his debute SOON). He did have a good snuggle afternoon with Momma on the couch one afternoon. I was thrilled to hug on my little guy.
We are also counting down the days till Uncle Jeremy gets home from China. He has been there since mid Fed and we are anxious to spend sometime with him once he is stateside again. We all got to skype with him the other day and even Noah was excited to see his face and had a pretty long (mostly jibberish) conversation over video.
