The last sonogram

On June 24th we had our last sonogram to see if she was head down or not. Well, thankfully she did turn and is head down now. She is too big for all of her body to be in the pictures, so I just have face shots. I think she looks just like Flint, but everyone says she has my profile which we will see soon enough. After my sonogram we went to the doctor, and she checked everything out - she told us that she was certainly head down and extremely low! The questions was asked if I would make it until August and she said no. So, Bitty Girl will be here sooner than we thought. Bitty Girl got pretty mad at the sono guy during the session! She had her hands in front of her face and she started swatting at him when he was rolling the thing over her face. It was so funny! Then it was so cool when she opened her eyes and at one point she yawned! It was amazing!

I am 35 weeks and now on a weekly visit schedule to the doctor. We had an appointment yesterday and the doctor said she is still head down and even lower than before. Dr. Gillean said that she is very long and lanky and by the time she gets here she should weigh between 8 to 8.5 pounds. Which is fine with me - at least she is not going to be 9 or 10 pounds!!! Flint asked what the possibilities were that she would be here before July 19 and she said about a 50/50 chance. He will be out of town in Houston the 12th through the 19th, that was the reason for asking. I am terrified that he will be gone and not make it, but hopefully she will hold out until her daddy gets home. She said that she thought it would probably be that week after the 19th. She also thought she would be able to see some changes in the next couple of weeks as far as my cervix thinning and stuff like that, so not to travel too far away. Anyways, enough about all of that stuff and here are some pictures of our little angel! In the second picture you can tell that her eye is opened.
Talk with you all soon!
