40 Weeks

We had our 40 week appointment today with Ali. We have three midwives that we rotate seeing throughout the pregnancy. We have been going in weekly now for a few weeks. I look forward to these and now I hope we don't have to have another appointment... just the birth. Madeline's heartbeat is in the 130's and Ali thought she probably weighs between 6 1/2 to 7 pounds right now. I am dilated at 1 1/2 cm and 50% effaced. But none of that information gives any indication when it will happen. I am getting restless. I don't think I can nest any more than I have. Our house is perfectly clean - all the cupboards are organized, floors mopped, furniture dusted. Bags are packed and car seat in the car. I feel like I have nothing to do. Well, kind of. I am still finishing up her quilt for the crib. Hien is off work now for 3 weeks. Woohoo! So tomorrow and the next few days we are just going to do some fun stuff - go see a movie, eat at Izumi's (our favorite sushi place - just remembered I can't eat raw fish... hmmm... well we will see where we will go). Izumi's was our 1st date, our first anniversary and seems fitting to go there in anticipation of our first baby. :)
