Overdue!



Okay everybody...this is what one week past due looks like.

We just got back from the doctor and I have been scheduled to be induced on Monday, February 4th. We are still hoping that Brody decides to join us on his own terms BEFORE Monday. Everything looks great. The doctors are very surprised that he hasn't already arrived. At least we know we will have a baby very soon!

Expect this blog to get a lot more exciting after Monday!

Come on Brody!

Brody's only speaking cousin, Clare, had this encouragement for him today!

Brody's 37 week Portrait



The Jennings family went to our 37 week appointment yesterday. We started with an ultrasound. Brody is weighing in at a very normal 6 1/2 pounds. His measurements all indicate a January 24th due date. That has been very consistent since our very first appointment at 8 weeks. His heartbeat was good at 139 bpm. We got a few pictures, but in this one you can see him sucking his thumb! Nathan and I have fallen in love with our son and the more we learn about him and get to know him the harder we fall.

Next we saw the doctor and I am progressing right on schedule. Everything measures normally for this stage in my pregnancy. We will keep you posted after the next appointment.
