She will be delivered next week!

Every Monday they have baby health "tests". The birth mom is weighed, blood test (for her gestational diabetes), urine test, baby heart test, sonogram, etc.

And this week I was able to go along. She is bigger now than one week ago and the pictures from the sonogram showed lots of movement from the baby. I was able to see her sucking on her hand and fingers then after a bit she stuck out her tongue. Birth mom right now only gets about two hours of sleep at night. So, she was relieved at the words the doctor had to say Monday afternoon...."Monday (Oct 27th) we will check to see if you are thin and dilated and by the end of the appointment you will have a date and time that we are going to induce you." So, our birth mom could possibly be induced as early as Oct 28th! The Doc. wants baby girl out because of birth moms diabetes. As, of right now we are all hopeful and excited to see our baby girl next week! All good news!

The bad news - My car broke down on our way back home from the doctors appointment and we are unable to get it fixed until Friday. At least it "died" in a good neighborhood on College in Overland Park. :) So, in the mean time I think we are going to have to rent a car till mine gets fixed.

More to come :).....
