I had my 37 week check-up yesterday, but my belly was measuring 34 weeks instead. So today we had a 4-D ultrasound to make sure the baby is growing well and there is enough fluid. Things looked good, but we will find out for sure tomorrow after my doctor looks over the results.
She had her hands and feet in front of her face the whole time, so I was a little bummed not to get some good pictures. This was the best we could get. (In case you can't tell, its her profile with her arm in front of her face). But it was really fun to see her opening her eyes and swallowing. The tech could see that she has some hair too! Paige was pretty bald when she was born. :) I am just dying to have this baby! I'm having a really hard time being patient.
UPDATE: My doctor said the baby looks good and healthy. She is just a little small. Her weight is estimated to be about 6 lbs, which is the 20th percentile. He isn't worried though since I have a smaller build.

How fun that you were able to see your baby opening and closing her eyes. Too bad you weren't able to get a better peek though. I wish I was having a 6 pound baby but I'm afraid she will weigh closer to 8 like Hallie did. blah. As for your baby, I am glad everything looks good and that she is just on the small side.
What a cool experience! I've never had the 4-d ultrasound, but always wanted to. That's so cool the tech could see her hair. Wild! Hope everything goes okay. I know you must be dying right now! Only a couple more weeks!!
So happy for you guys !! Almost there !! But I know how you feel ... waiting is a killer ... Dylan was 2 days late - Zoie right on time and Toby 3 days late ... I am not one of those lucky girls that have their baby 2 wks early and skip the most uncomfortable wks of my life !! Good Luck !!
