Day 6

I woke up bright and early today due to some heavy contractions so we were hopeful that today was going to be the day...turns out she changed her mind. She has made some progress, she has dropped down and is at 0 station (fully engaged in my pelvis)..poor girl will probably be born with a cone head from being stuck in there so long, but that is totally ok with us!

We had an ultrasound today and she looked great! She is measuring at 4 pounds 15 ounces, so only one more ounce until she is 5 pounds! The radiologist said that if she was to stay in until full term she would probably be 7 1/2 pounds! On the ultrasound we were able to see her make a bowl movement (she peed hehe) which makes me very happy because that just assures us her kidneys are strong and healthy! Not that we had any doubt but its always nice to be reassured that she is perfect!

I am still contracting every 3-5 minutes, so we are just waiting for my water to break for the "active labor" to kick in. Nurse says the pressure of her being so low should help, so for now it is still a waiting game.

James does have to go back to work tomorrow which is going to stink because I will be all alone during the days. But we are so thankful that Kassi and Ashton are in town right now helping us out with the dogs, so James is able to stay with me at the hospital in the evenings. I think we both are going a little stir crazy in this little room and are ready to go home with our little girl in hand!

Thank you all for your continued prayers for our family!!
