36 Week Check-Up

Well, things are progressing for little Collyn.

I had my 36 week check-up and I had the dreaded internal exam. UGH! I hate them! I wish we didn't have to do them. Your first pregnancy you want to know if anything is happening, dialation and effacement, but this time around.... I know I will eventually have a baby, so why do I need to know and go through the uncomfortable exam every week. Anyway- My cervix is softening and I am close to 1 centimeter dialated. So, things are happening. Last pregnancy, at 36 weeks, I was 1 1/2 cm dialated and 80% effaced, so I'm not as progressed as last time, but things are happening.

I was planning on making a trip to Cascade to be with Lyndon (He took Alden up there yesterday), but the doctor said it wouldn't be a good idea. So, Lyndon is currently on his way back home to drop Alden back off with me and heading back up to finish out the week at camp. My parents think I should stay with them until he gets home. We will see. :)

I gained more than I wanted to in the last couple weeks, but that is okay. I'm still lower than I was last pregnancy.

Since we didn't get a good picture of Collyn last ultrasound, the tech gave us a certificate for another one. We got some good pictures of him. He looks just like Alden. It's hilarious. I'm going to have little Lyndon Clones running around. :)

Here is Alden at 36 weeks.....

More updates later. :)
