Today our midwife visit happened at our house. The midwife was able to see the layout of our house and where we planned to have the baby. Good thing we had the house cleaned last weekend!
The midwife performed her routine weekly exam while she was here. The baby appears to be right at 7 lbs. now and is completely engaged in the pelvis. For the first time, the baby appears to be turned posterior, so Nancy is going to have to get on her hands and knees and try to get the baby to turn around to a more anterior position before labor. Nancy is also now 90% effaced. Two weeks ago she was 65% effaced, so we're getting really close now.
This weekend, Nancy is having a shower thrown for her by some women at our church. Nancy's sister and my sister and Nancy's parents are all traveling from out of town for the shower. It will be really nice to see everyone for one of the last times it will be just the two of us.
Well, next week's Valentine's Day, so I guess we have the possibility of a Valentine's Day baby. In the spirit of all the primary voting going on for the presidential election and yesterday being Super Tuesday, I'm going to throw another vote on the blog to see who thinks the baby will be early, late or on time. Happy voting!
