Getting closer

We took a tour of the hospital and pre-registered today before our appointment with the midwives. They've remodeled, but the layout is still pretty much the same. There are giant tubs in a couple of the birthing rooms, which are great. The postpartum rooms are still rather small and only have showers.

At our appointment, Kim said the baby was way down, but not yet totally engaged. She thought he was only about 6 pounds, so he may be smaller at birth than Johnny turned out to be at 8 pounds, 3 oz.

I got a double dose of showers this month. At work, there was a luncheon to celebrate the impending arrivals of the 3 babies to women in our department and the wedding of another. It was a salad potluck and Daniel and Johnny we able to attend. Then later, some of the moms from the neighborhood threw a group baby shower for me and two other moms who are expecting. It was a lovely evening out for me filled with yummy steak sandwiches and sparkling grape and pomegranate juice cocktails!
