38 Week Dr. Visit

Today was our last ultrasound!! We had to wait around forever to get in... apparently there are a lot of Fall babies coming into this world... but it was great to be able to see Rowan again!! Since he is so big now, the ultrasound was so difficult to see... I could kind of make out hands and feet, an elbow and spine.... and even some little fat wrinkles on his tummy... so cute!! We really couldn't see his face, little stinker STILL has a thing with covering it up with his hands and feet... but the tech assured us that all his parts are there and that he is growing at just the right rate!!

His head is now measuring on schedule (it was ahead before), his tummy is about 2 weeks behind, but she said plus or minus three weeks is normal, so that's good! His legs I guess are still considered short, but... they will grow! Tyler and I both have long legs, so hopefully he will someday too!! He is right on track and we are so thankful for that!

He is currently weighing in at a whopping 7 lbs 1 oz! Little guy, well average and we are thrilled that he put on the weight! They estimate he will be about 7.5ish at birth.. perfect!! We are just so excited to meet this lil man!

My Dr. visit went well, I am now almost 80% effaced and almost 1cm. dilated... so we are making some headway here!! My Dr. thinks we will be able to go ahead with the induction next Thursday, which means we will probably meet our little man by the end of next week!!! We can't believe it! Crossing our fingers that all goes well at our visit next Thursday and we can get this show on the road!! :) The aches and pains have taken over my body and I am just so ready to meet him!

That's about it for now! I will update again Monday, maybe for our LAST weekly picture!! :) :)
