almost 35 weeks!

So I've done alot in the past week- I've gotten the carseat professionally installed. The county has a place set up in a local county govt area every Wednesday. We had a fireman working on the carseat- showing us how to move the belts, how to put a newborn in and how to install it. It was a very good lesson on the how-tos. We set up the bassinet in the nursery so its ready for him. I plan to buy a crib with my government refund and some gift cards I got- its gonna be exciting. I want one that will convert to a toddler bed :)

I am 35 weeks tomorrow, so I have been going to do ultrsounds twice a week now and will have my Group B Strep test done in 2 Thursday, also have my iron check. Then starting in 3 weeks I start having cervical checks for dilation and contractions!! But the good stuff is that I will be full term in 14 days from now.

We are actively planning the bris. We went to a local kosher like bagel place today and sat down w/a womyn and are getting a dairy meal prepared.. That should be nice and she made it not sressful which is good too :)

So really all I have left is to buy some diapers, prepare mine and his hospital bag (which I hope to do early next week), get the room a little bit more cleaned up, do one more massive shopping for baby- pacifiers, more diapers, nursing stuff, perhaps more socks/shoes.. then I'm ready :) I am trying to forsee things he will need in the future- he will need a convertible car seat in about a year. Obviously his eating habits will change when he is 6-7 monthsish, so I want to get one of those books about how to make organic babyfood.

I still have to go through labor and delivery and whatnot, but its reassuring to see him on ultrasound. All looks good when I go and if I can keep him cookin' for another 2 weeks I will be cool to deliver after that :) So thats not to shabby- 14 more days and he will be full term. My baby!!! I got to see him practice breathing on the ultrasound today.. Coollll huh?? :)
