One last post.....

I thought I would do one final post before we hopefully have a baby. I had my final pre-natal checkup today and baby sounded great and my weight wasn't too scary........it helps I've lost weight over the last 2.5 weeks:) My doctor had actually called to check up on me yesterday and had my induction appt. already made for 9 am Saturday morning........until I got a call a few minutes ago from the ODU telling me to come in for 7 am instead........good thing we had planned on taking the kids to Mom's tonight to sleep or else tomorrow morning would have been really insane.......I couldn't imagine how hard it would have been to get Jacob up before 6am to leave.......he loves his sleep!!! So am I excited???? Very much......but nervous too......I think I wouldn't be so nervous if labour was enjoyable.......but it never is for me until I get an epidural and I always worry I won't be able to get it. It will be strange to have a baby early too......I'm super curious to see how big baby will be. I'm still guessing over 9 lbs........time will tell at this point......I'm also curious to see if anyone has guessed the weight right off my post from the other day. Lots of fun!!!!! I will try and update this as soon as possible, if not watch for facebook updates and updates on blogs from Aunties.......between the 4 of them someone should be able to get up some pictures!!!!Hope everyone has a great weekend......we have an exciting one ahead and can't wait to meet baby #5...........





Miss G is going to look so big when
the new baby is here.......

I know I was speaking to you while you were posting this blog but I couldn't resist commenting. I can't wait to see Baby #5. I already told you what I thought the name should be, lol but I can't wait to see what you and Jeff come up with. At least I'll have a baby to hold now on movie nights since everyone is always in bed before we get there. Well everyone that is, except Boofa, hahahaha! I hope the labour isn't too painful and we'll be in to see you tomorrow...love you guys!

So exciting! I can't wait to hear what baby Nelson is!!! And I am wishing I was you. I would love to know Marley was coming tomorrow. I keep telling her I would love to have her on a weekend so Colin is home and I don't have to wait for him to get home! We'll see if she listens;) Good luck with everything.

Apparently I just deleted my last comment! Anyway, I don't know if you can do this in Canada, bu when I went in to be induced with my last baby, I told them right away that I wanted the epidural. I don't like the pitocin, so I knoew I would want some pain relief. My doctors were really good about coordinating the pitocin with the anesthesia. I wish they had been as good about being in the room when the baby decided to make his appearance!

Enjoy your last full night sleep tonight, and good luck tomorrow. I will be thinking of you all day. It's kind of weird to know that you are going to have a baby tomorrow yet not have any signs today eh? That's what I found with Ryan. It just was different.

Best of luck and I sure am glad that you are a chick that does drugs for labour! I fully believe that is one of the reasons we are blessed enough to come now, to not feel as much pain!

Give the newest bundle a kiss for me.
