Well, the midwife said we have officially reached the point where if labor were to begin they wouldn’t try to stop it!!  Pretty cool to know we’ve entered the home stretch…even if that home stretch could be another 4+ weeks.

I got to see the top of the baby’s head today via sonogram.  My midwife wanted to make sure the baby was still head down.  So I got a quickie view of the skull top and the suture line that runs across the top.  I didn’t get to see anything else though.  Too bad you can’t tell if the baby has hair via those things.  I want to see this little person soooo badly now.

I keep reading that the baby’s movements should be smaller now since it should be running out of room in there, but this little person still manages to make pretty awesome flops sometimes.  His/her little fanny was parading across my upper belly the other night pretty comically.  I had a bulge to the right, then the center and then back to the right.

The midwife gave orders to start walking.  Everyday we are too walk as long as I can on the track.  She said it will help get the baby moved down into position and help me once labor actually comes.   The baby hasn’t dropped yet and the midwife said it could be 2 weeks before delivery after the head is all the way engaged.  So we’re at least 2+ weeks away from any big news.
