Doctor
Today we went to the doctor to check on the pregnancy. My due date is tommorow so she did some extra tests today to make sure everything was okay. She did an ultrasound and we could see the baby's face:) I was so happy to see the baby doing well in there. It is against the law to reveal the gender so we didn't even get a good guess. The baby was hiding that evidence anyway:) The doctor said the baby weighs around 2.8 kilos which made me panic at first because I thought that sounded way small but once it is converted to pounds it is actually 6.1 lbs. The doctor said that is a safe weight and will make delivery easier which is always a plus. They also did a non stress test on the baby to monitor the heart rate and things. This also came back very good so they sent me home to wait until the baby is ready. I will go back on Wednesday and she will make sure the baby is still doing well since it will be past my due date. The good news is that my mom will be here early Wednesday morning so she may get to be a part of everything. We have heard that there will be a government sanctioned strike on Monday and that vehicles are not allowed on the road so we are praying that I can avoid labor on Monday. They assured me that I can take an ambulance if I need to but I would rather avoid the whole situation:) So things are good and we are just waiting patiently... or not so patiently for the baby to make his/her move. Your prayers are greatly appreciated.
