Doctor's Predictions

I went to the doctor today and I was really nervous for some odd reason. So he examined me and told me that I was dilated to 1 cm, 50% effaced, and my cervix was really soft. He felt the babies head and said,"There is the babies head." It was so fun to hear that. He told me that he gives me another week unless my water breaks before then. We are okay with another week because then Braeden is full term. YEAH! Finally we are here. My measurements have maxed out. That means I only grew one inch and one pound in two weeks. He said I have hit my maximum. So we better prepare really well this next week for the baby. I am so excited and I cannot wait to be a mommy. I was a little scared yesterday thinking that I was soon going to be responsible for another person, but I soon grew out of that when I saw a cute little baby boy. It will be different for sure and I know Ben is going to be in for a shock of a lifetime. It is not going to be anything he expects.

We will just hang in there for another week and then he can come. It will be great! My grandpa Henry passed away in 2005 and I really wish he could be here to hold that baby, and be proud to be a great grandpa. I know that Braeden is with him right now just waiting to come down here to me. My grandpa was always so special to me. He always made sure I knew that he knew I was beautiful and a special person. I am going to make sure to teach my baby about his great grandpa and how special he is. He is my guardian angel and I miss him so much! He was the greatest man that I have know. He had such a strong testimony and I want to be just like him. His birthday is Tuesday. I love you grandpa Henry. I am sure that he would do everything in his power to be here to see this baby. That is just how he was. He never cared about himself, just about his family. He was never selfish. I am glad that my son gets to be with his great grandpa before he comes to this earth. I miss you grandpa!
