38 Weeks




We are writing with very exciting news...we are scheduled to be induced on Monday, 12/29!!! It is hard to believe that we will be holding Graham in our arms in just 2 short days. I have continued having contractions since my last blog entry, but have not dilated anymore. At our appointment last Wednesday, Graham was measuring 2.5 weeks ahead of schedule (meaning he is continuing to grow quickly). They estimated him to weigh 8-8.5 pounds at his point. Of course this is only an estimate, but the fear is that if we wait until our due date he will weigh between 8.5-10.5 pounds. We have already said that there is no need for a 10 pound baby! So this, along with the swelling in my ankles (aka kankles), led the doctor to recommend an induction.


Please keep all of us in your thoughts and prayers. We will have the computer at the hospital and hope to keep everyone updated through out the day!
