The Home Stretch

I am 37 weeks pregnant today. This is considered full-term, which means that if the baby was born today, she'd be just fine. By 37 weeks, all of the vital organs are fully developed, including the lungs which are the last to finish up. Soooooooo.......this girl is welcome to come anytime! My due date is still three weeks out, June 14, however so its just waiting now for her to make her move.

All signs are good. I am not experiencing any of the problems I had at the end of Henry's pregnancy. My blood pressure remains good, I have not had any swelling in my feet or hands and my weight gain is right on. With any luck, she will NOT be 10 pounds like her brother was. I am predicting 7 lbs 7 ounces on June 7th, but I'm likely dreaming...
