36 weeks and counting...

    Hi there!  Sorry it has been so long, but I haven't really had anything new to write about.  Well, as you may remember I had to go for my weekly check ups on Monday.  Tyler's mom, Diana came with me this time, which is always nice to have some company.  So our day started out with my ultrasound appointment, which they were really behind because they had two techs. call in sick, so instead of starting with the ultrasound, they actually started me on the fetal monitor, for the non stress test.  Thankfully this time Madison actually co-operated, and the test was done without any problems.  Next, we went for the ultrasound, and that was nothing new except that the tech. maybe didn't know what she was doing; she was measure the abdomen all wrong, and actually asked me how to do it!  Thankfully we got through that, but because of the way she measured the abdomen and omphalocele, the weight of the baby ended up being around 8 pounds!!  Dr. Simrose, the perinatologist, assured us that the baby probably weighs closer to 6 pounds.
   After that little adventure which took close to 2 hours, we went to my Dr. Cooper appointment.  Nothing really new there, except that our date has changed!!  Apparently the surgeon, and the neonatologist were not happy about the baby being born on a Friday, so they moved the date to after the long weekend.  October 12,2010 at 8:00am!  (oh yeah, even a time!)  Hopefully this is the actual date, but you never know!  I will keep you in the loop!
  Sorry I don't have anything too exciting to talk about, but in this situation no new is exactly what we want!!   So, because this story is so uneventful, here is a picture to make it worth your time!  : )
