Saturday, January 5, 2002 -- Quick Entry

I've been a slacker - sorry. Happy New Year!!!!!!

So I have 3 weeks (or so) to go. Doc says I'm good for a home birth. I pick up my birth box on Wednesday and the labor tub on the 14th. The baby's still head down, my blood pressure was 125/60, I'm measuring 36cm (at 36 and 4/7 weeks) and the baby's heart rate was 140.

My hemoglobin actually came up a bit to 11.1 on 12/27 from 10.3 on 10/30. It should be higher (12 - 14), but the doc seemed happy with where it was.

The bathroom is mostly demolished. I have many pics that I will post later. I think the guys had fun between all the power tools and the many trips to Home Depot. We also played plenty of Settlers and some Cheap Ass Games.

I took Radley to the groomer. She is no longer "Queen of Matted Fur". YAY!!!!!

Anyway, it's late, so here are some belly pics:

My belly at 35.5 weeks

My belly at 37 weeks
