36 weeks

We got our 4th ultrasound yesterday! A few weeks ago, we had one done to check Azaylee's size bc she was measuring big. She was 4lbs 14 ounces and measuring in at about 35 weeks when I was 32. SO, yesterday we got a another ultrasound to make sure the due date was right and to make sure she was healthy. She seems to be right on track now, measuring in almost to the day. She was 5 lb 12 ounces. We also got a couple 3D ultrasound pictures of her face! I will try to post those as soon as Aaron gets them scanned. I also got "checked" for the first time yesterday and found out I am already 3 centimeters. I have been having quite a few contractions here and there, but I was suprised at the progress that was made. I was hooked up to an external monitor to check contractions to see if I was in true labor, but the contractions were very irregular while I was checked. Since I am just now 36 weeks, the doctor put me on modified bed rest for a week. I think this is pretty crazy considering that nothing more could happen for the next 4 weeks( or I guess I could go into labor tomorrow ;).....but I guess they're playing it safe. So, not much is going to be happenin' here in the Forsyth household, except for maybe packing the hospital bag.
