He's here!!! Landon Jay Douglass made his grand appearance on Wednesday, Feb. 22, 2012, at 12:03am. Weighing in at 9 pounds, 13 oz and 21.5 inches, he is a big boy but oh so sweet! Will post more later

and......... still pregnant

Well, due date has now come and (almost) gone and still pregnant. No indication that this little guy is coming soon. I go to the dr. tomorrow for a non-stress test and ultrasound. If everything still looks ok, then the latest they will let me go is a week over. I would then be induced.... BRING IT ON!!!!

37 week check up

I went to the doctor this morning for my 37 week check up and all is well! Officially full term tomorrow (I am actually 36 weeks and 6 days today) I actually lost a pound this week, which means I have only gained 25 pounds in 37 weeks....not too shabby! Blood pressure and heart rate were all good and the midwife said I was measuring right on track. She doesn't think he's too big or too small, which is nice to hear. I was told last week that if my GBS culture came back negative, I could have the dr. strip my membranes next week, at my 38 week check. Well, I asked about GBS and they didn't know. It wasn't on the form in my chart so they were going to call and find out and hopefully when I go next week, it will be negative and the dr. will strip the membranes. I had this done with Madelyn and it didn't do anything to start labor, but I'm willing to try again. I really don't want to go over due, especially since Madelyn was big and I don't want this one to be big but we will just wait and see.
His room is finished, except to put two shelves on the wall and maybe a couple other decorations. I have all the clothes and blankets and burp clothes washed and ready to go. My hospital bag is packed and ready to go to. I realized today that I should probably pack a bag for Madelyn, in case she has to go to my in-laws house. I don't know when my parents will be here, so if I go into labor and no one is here for Mady, I will have to call my in laws and send her there for a little bit.
I guess that's all. Hopefully little guy will make his grand entrance soon.
