Just Waiting....

I am now almost 37 weeks along and just waiting for the little guy to make his move! I went to the OB last Wednesday and found out that I was dilated to 2 cm/50% effaced. The OB is comfortable with me having the baby any day now, as he is larger than average, so I have been walking, doing squats, etc. Yesterday I felt some contractions erratically throughout the day, but nothing regular. Today has been less eventful :( I am trying to get this boy moving, but I guess he wants to come in his own time.

In other news, we are continuing to look for a home in Petaluma. We have been outbid on 2 properties and our bid was countered on a 3rd property, but we decided not to make a counter offer. It is very frustrating to be a buyer or seller (I assume) in this current real estate market, but we'll keep looking and hopefully find the right house soon.

I go to the OB again tomorrow, so we'll see if I have made any further progress!

35 Weeks

I am now at 35 weeks and officially off bed rest!!!! As soon as the OB told me that, I promptly took the stairs instead of the elevator (she is on the 8th floor)! We are definitely ready for the little guy to make his apperance. My sister, mom and friend Nina threw a baby shower for us on Sunday so now we have almost everything we need....except a bigger house! Speaking of that, we have been looking very seriously for a home in Petaluma (about 40 mins north of San Francisco) for almost a month now. We have put offers on 3 homes, but been outbid twice and countered once (they want too much for it in this market), so we are continuing to look and hoping that the house for us will come along soon! Who knew a little bitty baby required so much space? :) I have included some pics from my shower below....as you can see he is definitely growing in there!
