Getting Closer...

35 weeks down, 5 to go. It is good to see that we are getting closer. In fact, we are supposed to pack our hospital bag and install the car seat this week. Yikes! We are ready though whenever this little thing wants to come out. We are far enough along that the baby should be healthy and I am getting more and more uncomfortable... I'm sure the same goes for the squished baby. :) Brett is even ready so that says a lot.

The baby should be about 6 pounds in the 36th week, and around 18 inches long. We have our (probably) last ultrasound in about a week so we will know how the baby is positioned and if he or she is still growing appropriately. After that, I will be going to the doctor weekly until the baby comes.

We took a breastfeeding class over the weekend. It was actually really good. The lady who taught it had a lot of experience and did a good job teaching. Now hopefully we can use what we learned and be successful. I guess we'll find out in the weeks to come.

There are just a few things that should probably be done before the big day. Most important is probably having a list of potential boy names. We are still struggling with that. We also need to do some final cleaning and laundering of the baby's room, clothes, and diapers. And we are planning to order a glider in the next couple of days.
