The Waiting Game...

So I have to say that I never thought I would reach my due date, but I have! Today was the official day and still I sit here like a balloon that needs to be popped. My OB and I thought for sure that I would go early, but now I know that my baby will come when she is ready. Louis thinks that she is already a "stubborn Isom" and that we are in big trouble!

But it has been a really nice week with my family here and not having to go into work. Along with relaxing, I have been walking 2-3 miles everyday to get this labor going. I am having a lot of contractions throughout the day, but nothing consistant. Today we all decided to spend one last family day at the beach! It was a lot of fun!

Sprinkle

The girls from Church insisted on giving me a little Sprinkle this morning! It was too nice of them. We got together at Panera for breakfast and they spoiled me with tons of gifts! This Savana girl is seriously spoiled already! I also had my 39 week check up today and the doc thinks she will come in the next week for sure! I am counting on it! My official due date is the 22nd, so she better get here by then. I am more than ready...I got my spa pedicaure and manicure and my hair did yesterday! It's show time!

Baby Shower

Louis told me the other day that he was going to take me out on probably our last date before our baby comes this Saturday night. So when we got to the restaurant last night it was actually a surprise baby shower my friends had planned for me! It was so nice of them considering I am having a another girl! They are so sweet! I was really shocked and just so happy for all the wonderful things they did for me!

Another Update...

I am almost 37 weeks along and went to the doctor today for another ultrasound to look at my little baby's kidneys, and they are doing better! Thank you for everyone's prayers. Her kidneys are not as dilated as before. So hopefully they will be in the normal range by the time she is born. Everything else is perfectly healthy though! From the ultrasound the doctor already estimated that she is 7 lbs. too! She is going to big baby like Baylee. However, my stomach is still measuring 2 weeks smaller. It explains the sciatica I have had for a week now though. She is sitting really low and deep and putting a lot of pressure on my back. THERE IS NO WORSE PAIN THAN THIS, I TELL YOU!!! If anyone has ever experienced sciatica you know what I am talking about, and being pregnant with it makes the pain so much worse. I am more than excited for her to get here now. I hope I survive this back pain until she gets here!
