.010

Today was my last ultrasound before baby Audrey gets here. Grandma Christine came with which was so nice. Dr. Shah said that everything looks great and she is right on track with growth and development as she should be. He showed us that Audrey's head is already half way in my pelvic bones which means she is on her way out, head first. Awesome! The chance of her turning is slim since she is running out of room in there so hopefully she stays the same through the next few weeks. He also showed us the amount of amniotic fluid surrounding her and said that when my water does break, it will be quite a bit of water so I will definitely know! That makes me feel a little more settled since I was nervous about not knowing. We listened to Audrey's heartbeat which is a strong 150bpm and she weighs about 4 lbs. Dr. Shah said that she should be about 7.5 lbs at birth which is average, but because of my petite size if she is any bigger it could be more difficult to deliver. We talked a little about cesarean sections and epidurals and when I said I wish for the most natural birth possible he said he is right on board with that. I think we chose a great doctor and I am feeling more and more comfortable knowing he will be delivering our little baby girl.

Audrey's nursery is coming along really nicely and I wanted to share some photos of how it looks so far.

This is what you see right when you walk in the door.


To the left a little is a bed for us to take a nap while Audrey is napping.


Her changing station which isn't finished yet, soon to be filled with diapers!!


Audrey's crib :)


Her closet so far, I love all of her tiny clothes.

Matt & I are so very excited and can't believe she's almost here!! Everyday I tear off a paper link and watch how much we get closer and closer to holding our baby Audrey!

peace and love,
Cydney & Matt
