nope...still no babies

sorry for the lack of updates, but as you can imagine we've been quite busy around here with family in town for the holidays. christmas was pretty lowkey, since the weather was so miserable and we unfortunately had our share of sickies in the house.

so here we are now at december 30th, in my 37th week and still prego! i honestly thought they would have been here by now, but not the case! had a doctor's appt this morning and i'm sitting a 1cm dilated....which is nothing to get terribly excited about since that's exactly where i was two weeks ago!

so now, if they are not here by next week, we'll be picking a day to be induced. so much for our 2008 tax deductions!! well i suppose they still have 36 more hours if they decide they're ready!! :)

hope you all had a wonderful holiday! and have a happy new year!!

maternity pics

we went to take some pics a few weeks ago, and i thought i'd post the few that i have. i was quite pleased with our photographer, but i'm more excited for when the babies get here to take their newborn pics!

fFN test results

so....we went in yesterday and had the test done and the fetal fibronectin results came back negative...meaning there is a 95% chance that these babies will not be arriving in the next two weeks! there seem to be many who doubt this test, but my doc seems to be a believer, so i've got no reason to think otherwise!
of course parts of me are so ready to have and meet these babies, but it's obviously better for them to be in utero for as long as possible. in two weeks time, i'll be 35 weeks, so that is definitely a good thing if they're still in the belly. on top of that, house remodelling is still underway, so not exactly ideal if they arrived before that was completed (target still is 12/15).
other than that, still feeling great and if i make it to next saturday, doc says i can resume my physical activity again! :) of course that really just consists of walking and a little weight training, but that's perfectly fine by me!
