Today we had our 38 week check up for baby Charlie! Unfortunately I could not make it. :( This is only the second appointment that I was unable to go to due to work. It seems that Baby Charlie is pretty comfortable inside of Mommy's nice warm body. He is not making much of an attempt to come out yet. He is slowly dropping into the pelvis and preparing for blast off, but he is taking his sweet time opening the door. Jamie has not dilated at all, but she is 40% effaced. Effaced is the measurement of the cervical thickness.
Mommy is holding up pretty well even though she is pretty miserable. She complains that she is not sleeping very much, but I have several pictures and videos to prove otherwise. I know that it isn't a full nights sleep like she is used to so I do feel for her. We are both overly anxious if you haven't noticed and time is creeeeepppppiiiinnnnngggg along. Baby Charlie is as active as he has been throughout the entire pregnancy and now that he is huge compared to Jamie's petite size, his acrobatics have become very uncomfortable for Mommy. He likes to play kick the Daddy when he hears my voice and feels me poking and prodding his shell.
Our bags are packed, the house is pretty organized, all of the baby equipment has been tested and the car seat is installed. I have my bottle bandoleer ready and my diaper dispenser is all set up. I still need to figure out how to use this bobby thingy for feeding? Well, actually, it will be so that I can hold him and still play video games. I can't wait for man-time. Poor Jamie is going to be over run with two little boys in the house. (That includes me. Not having twins.) It's the final countdown!
