The three of us went for another checkup this morning. Baby is still perfect, although my sugar level was a little high. I suspect that's due to the Christmas cookies and cherry Sprite I've had all week. Baby won't be able to eat Christmas cookies once he's out so I should be letting him enjoy them now, right? ;)

The good news is that Baby may be starting to realize it's almost time to evacuate. My tummy measured only 37cm which is two less than last week (and he's still sticking his bum out front!) and one less than he should be measuring for being 38 weeks old. A decrease like this usually means that the baby is dropping and getting into position to make his grand entrance into the world!

I passed on any other progress checks since they're inaccurate for predicting when labor will start and I didn't want to get my hopes up or dashed. Since everything else is fine, Renee saw no medical reason to check. We'll get a full report next Friday, though. I'm really hoping he's ready by then so he's here around the time his Grandmommy arrives on the 18th!
