A little Gemini!

I promised you a date, so here it is!

Our baby girl will be born on May 22nd at 1pm at the Ottawa Hospital (General Campus) . We can hardly wait to meet our little angel :-)

I thought it would be fun for you guys to guess her weight and lenght. How big and tall do you think she will be???

My guess: 7 pounds 9oz, 20.5 inches

Very soon mommy-to-be - out

Update!

It's been a while eh? Sorry guys!

It's been pretty hectic lately to say the least! We Rob contractors have been finalizing house projects, we are getting ready for the baby's arrival, and the list goes on! But now everything is all done, well, almost anyways. We finished the nursery too. We still have to stain the rocking chair but here are some pics:

I'm really glad I took some time off before baby comes. I was able to rest when I felt tired, wash all the baby clothes and blankets (that was so fun!), go to the A Channel Car Seat Clinic to make sure we had properly installed it. Turns out we so hadn't!!! I also bought my first nursing bra, it's so nice and comfy! Wow, I can't believe I'm actually excited about that...And I also bought myself a nice little pj for the hospital because, well, I deserve it!

Between my resting and running errands I had a couple of Dr. appointments as well as an ultrasound. Last week we went for an ultrasound to check the baby's position, turns out she is breeched. Basically she's positioned like a V in my belly - her head is right under my boob with her little ghetto bootie at the bottom and her legs coming up towards her little face.

I won't lie, I was quite disappointed...I so wanted a vaginal birth. So yesterday I went for an External Cephalic Version (ECV) at the General Hospital to try and get her to turn around. The Dr. took a look at my ultrasound and told me that she did not think it would work because the baby is fairly big and there is not a lot of amniotic fluid. But I told her that if there was no risk to the baby that I wanted to try anyways. Well, she was right, after a couple of painful tries our little one did not budge an inch! So afterwards I did a non stress test to make sure the baby was ok, and she was :-) It was so cool to hear her heartbeat for 20 minutes!

So now, I am anxiously awaiting for my OBGyn to call me with a date and time for my c-section. They were supposed to call me this morning, and it's now close to noon! What are they waiting for????? Once they call me I will let you know when the Big Day is! :-) Any guesses?
