16 days to go...

Yesterday morning I had my 37 week doctor's appointment. I am still not dilated at all, but baby is still remaining in the proper head down position which was good to hear. The doc did say that I had "thinned out" since my last appointment which means things are least moving along, just not as quickly as I'd like them to be as I'm becoming extremely uncomfortable with each passing day. Our next appointment is Monday, 2/23, so I'll fill you all in afterwards.

Sleeping is pretty much out of the question at this point. Each night I get stabbing pains in my lower back and my tummy tightens up to the point where I'm actually fighting to get a good breath of air. The baby certainly enjoys playing in my tummy at nighttime. I'm assuming this is my body's way of preparing me for what's to come. :)

But health wise I continue to feel fine and we're just counting down the days at this point. Greg and I can't wait to meet ______ _______ Davis or ______ ______ Davis. haha! Sorry, some folks don't want to know the names we chose until the baby arrives so I can't blow it for them! Don't worry mom and dad, I won't spill the beans until the time comes!! :)
