37 weeks

Great news at my appointment, I am GBS negative and this baby is head down! It's such a relief to be negative, so I don't have to worry about anything during labor this time. The Hybicleanse rinse sounded better than antibiotics, but still not exactly appealing. Other than that, it was pretty routine, and I'll be back again next Tuesday for my 38 week visit. I also had my massage at the birth center yesterday - heavenly!

I'm hoping for the next few days to go by fast, so I will be preoccupied again. Wednesday we are going out to dinner with some friends of mine. Thursday is Thanksgiving of course, so we'll spend the day at my parent's house. Friday, Saturday and Sunday we'll keep ourselves busy by decorating the house, putting up the tree and finish setting up all of the baby stuff. That following Monday, I will hit 39 weeks, and then I'll be content to rest and just wait for labor to begin. I'm fairly confident I will go between 39-40ish weeks, maybe just slightly over, but I'm hoping not.

I suppose winter is trying to push it's way in sooner than I wanted this year. I was happy to enjoy fall for a few more weeks until after Thanksgiving was over. It's been snowing for almost 2 weeks now and it's COLD! When I turned on the computer this morning, it said it was under 20 degrees, brrr! We've had snow on and off for these past few weeks and even though it has accumulated for long, a little bit has stuck, mostly on our back deck. Abigail loves it, she has really enjoyed going outside to play with the little bit that is out there.

Hopefully I have a more exciting post to make in the next few weeks, until then, I suppose I'll just ramble!
