36 week appointment

I had another prenatal appointment with my OB today. She told me she thought it over and has no problem with the drape being lowered, she just has to talk with the anesthesiologist about it since they run the show in the OR. I have my fingers crossed that this will be okay! I would love to see my baby being born.

I also gave her a copy of my birth plan, which she said was no problem. She did the good 'ole GBS test, and for the heck of it checked my cervix. Just as I expected: cervix closed, baby high. No biggie; it's a c-section anyway. She palpitated my belly, and guessed baby is around 7.5 lbs right now -- which sounds right to me. This belly feels incredibly heavy. She's guessing that at 39 weeks, baby will be around 9 lbs, if not over 9. And again, I agree.

I can't believe I am pregnant again. I am 36 weeks, but I still cannot believe it. Just 20 more days to go... in 20 days we will be adding a fifth and final person to our family. I wonder what they will be like? Heck, I wonder if it's a boy or a girl. Just... amazing.
