35 weeks and we have progress!

Yesterday we had our 35 week baby appt and ultrasound. We were so excited to see our lil monkey! First thing I told the doctor was that I'm feeling a LOT of pressure so she decided to do an "internal" to see if I was dilated yet and to all of our surprise I'm already dilated 1.5cm and 80% effaced!! She generally waits until 37 weeks to start internals but we were all so happy she checked! With Sophia I was dilated to a 1 at 37 weeks and I delivered 11 days later so if that's any indication of Baby#2's arrival....then we should have a baby sooner than later!! Doctor said he already weighs approx 6lbs right now and estimated (if I go to 40 weeks which she didn't think likely) he'll weigh 7.5lbs(which made me soooooo happy). Hopefully her estimates are right:) She also checked the babies amniotic fluid level and said it's right on at 15(apparently under 10 is too low and over 20 is to much). We're still slated to move into our new house next Friday...just hoping this baby can wait until then! We'd like to have his nursery all set up for him. We might just have a baby in our arms before Christmas...HOW FUN!!!
Thought I'd include a picture from last week of a lunch with some good friends in Orange County...3 out of 4 of us are preggy!!
