Still Preggers


We got an ultrasound today to check on her and she is doing well, the placenta looked good so that buys us some time. We set a date to induce on Monday so her birthday would be 8-9-10 how cool would that be! I'm hoping and Dr. Flora is hopeful that she will come before that on her own. We got a great picture of her foot, and we know she is still a girl so we don't have to change her name. but when they are this big it's hard to see much so no face shots. I am dilated a bit more too about a 3 still at 90%. She stripped my membranes, third times a charm?

40 week apt

So she made it all the way, I keep singing happy birthday to her to get her motivated.
The 40 week apt. went well all my numbers are good; I'm 90% Effaced and 2.5 dilated. She stripped the membranes again. We will go twice a week now till she comes so we set up an ultrasound and non-stress test for Monday and Thursday next week. Hoping she will come before those but will be great to get an ultrasound on Monday if she is not here, cause I haven't seen her for 20 weeks, so something to look forward to. Of course Dr. Flora is not on call this weekend so it will be Dr. Moon delivering us if we go before Monday. Dr. Flora thinks she is 8lbs so that is a big girl! We'll see.

She's Here!


Baby's Name: Evangeline "Evey" Grace Price
Date of Birth: 8/9/10 at 5:29 pm


Original Due Date: 7/29/10
Weeks Pregnant: 41weeks 4days


Baby's Weight: 9 lbs, 6 ozs
Baby's Length: 21 inches

Week 40!!!!!!

Pumpkin: should be between 19 and 21 inches long and weigh anywhere from 6 ¾ to 10 pounds. If you are having a boy, then he is most likely on the larger side of these ranges, because on average boys are bigger than girls, that's a relief!

Your baby’s bones have become hard, with the exception of her skull. The bones in the skull need to remain soft and pliable for delivery so that they can overlap as they pass through the birth canal. Because a newborn’s skull is designed this way, your baby’s head may have a cone appearance for the first several days of life. Your baby will actually have two soft spots, or fontanelles, on her head which allow for an easier delivery. The front fontanelle will become hard between the eighth and fifteenth month of life. The back fontanelle becomes hard between the third and fourth month.
Lisa: Over the carpal tunnel and the waiting! I know it's in her time and God's I just want her now please. This weekend Matt came for a visit it was nice to see him and laugh eat and smile. We got a new fridge which I'm so excited about having ice and water in the door! It also really brightens up the kitchen. My Friend Amy had her twins on Sunday Charlie and Andy, I'm going to meet them today I'm so excited! I had my SSG small group over last night and I kept saying stuff unfiltered, I think it's part of the end of pregnancy, not being able to control your words must have something to do with all the hormones.

Shawn: anxiously awaiting the arrival of his daughter any day now. Talks to her every morning trying to coax her out: "We have milk out here, it's really fun, I want to meet you, I love you."

39 weeks today apt.

39 apt update:Loose 2 dilated, 90% effaced, stripped the membranes today. Dr. Flora is not on call this weekend and Shawn and Julie are both going to the brickyard so she will probably come this weekend. :)

Encouraging for me to read today:
Most women deliver their babies by 41 weeks of pregnancy (fewer than 3 of 100 women will go past 42 weeks of pregnancy);

week 39 still pregers!

Baby Price: Now between 18 and 20 ½ inches long and around 6 ½ to 8 pounds. (how am I going to squeeze this baby out!?) Baby is continuing to grow and working on the layer of fat underneath her skin. This is an important part of your baby’s ability to regulate it's body temperature once it is born. Your baby is also beginning to form new skin cells which will replace older skin cells.

Lisa: ugh! I'm ready let's get this show on the road! trying to enjoy every kick and movement. Taking walks to try to go into labor. Packed for the hospital yesterday.

Shawn: Made a song mix for the hospital room. New nick name for me: Preggers. Wrote an awesome letter to his daughter. He is getting really excited for her to be here. Installed the car seats this weekend! We are so ready now.
