More Checkups

If you are counting, yesterday's NST was the fourth round for Kiersten. The baby is still looking healthy and doing what babys do best. The baby has definitely grown to a point where it is running out of room. When it moves, you cannot miss it...even if your are standing across the room. It looks more and more like a movie stunt and I just cannot imagine what it would be like to be Kiersten!

Kiersten also had a checkup with her doctor. When the doctor examined Kiersten, she asked if she really wanted to know her fundal height measurement. Keep in mind that the baby is about 36 1/2 weeks...Kiersten measured 41 weeks! Oh, big baby...

It is still a wait-n-see game. Hopefully, Kiersten will deliver within the next week and there will be either no or few complications. In addition to the NST later this week, she will also have an ultrasound to estimate the baby's size and check the amniotic fluid level.

The poll results have surprised us over the past couple weeks. The Boys are in the lead 8-6. We hold true to our prediction of having a daughter. I assume recent votes might have been influenced by the news of the big baby. We still do not know and we will not sneak a peak at the next ultrasound!
