And we've arrived at the weekly appointments

So here we are with less than 30 days to go. The doc today said that everything is still looking good. I'm still measuring bigger than my due date, but since the ultrasound last week showed Rya was right on target, they aren't too concerned. I did ask about induction...and because I've been measuring big, they think it's justifiable to be induced on my due date rather than letting me go over. The risk of the baby growing too big and the increased risk of a c-section if I were to go much past my due date would be greater and I'm not really willing to risk it. They'll monitor Rya's growth over the next couple of weeks and may even decide to induce me earlier than March 1st if needed. Definitely stay tuned for up to date information on the expectant birth of Rya Faith.

Otherwise, I'm feeling pretty good. Rya is moving like crazy, and there are moments where I'm sure she's going to push her own way out of my tummy! Those little elbows (or knees or whatever) pack a punch...let me tell you :)
