38 Week Update
Mom and dad just left the two of the three doctor's appointments mom had this week. The news we got was a little mixed but overall really good. Mom is 1 centimeter dilated and 70% effaced. Based on the ultrasound I have reached optimal positioning for delivery. I am in the left occiput anterior (LOA) position, which is just a fancy way to say I’m in the optimal position for birthing. The mixed part is Dr Johnson told mom that if I don’t come by next Friday, they will set a date for induction. Mom is not fond of the idea, but will do what she has to, to get me here safely. Mom is determined to get me here naturally so she is stepping up her exercise routine. She has even made exercise dates, so that she can have some moral support. Look out world here I come.

Well, see you and the baby when you come back to work. Take care!
