We met with the high risk doctor today, he wanted to get a read on your size so we did what I'm assuming will be your last ultrasound. Elliot and your brothers came, they were very excited to see "Baby Kaia on TV", but were pretty disappointed when you were far to big to look even remotely baby like. Caleb was pretty convinced you weren't in there, though your constant foot jabs in my ribs were proving otherwise. Here is the best we got from your final internal photo shoot:
And one more of the boys watching you intently on the TV:
The doctor said you look fantastic, everything is as it should be, and while still on the small side..you're within the normal range. Right now you're about 5lbs 13 oz, so you're doing great. You're facing the right direction as well, and I can't imagine you have the room to flip, so I think we're in the clear. We have another appointment tomorrow with our delivering doctor who will be a lot more specific on what the plan for delivery is, but according to this doctor he'd like us to induce the week before our due date (so sometime the week of June 23rd). If it's up to me we'll aim for June 26th, but I'll have to see what the doctor will allow tomorrow. There was talk of your size being an issue (if you're too big, I'm too small) and I would think we'd maybe have a talk about inducing earlier. That information will all come tomorrow.
Otherwise, everything is normal. You give me massive heartburn, and there's very little room for my stomach, so I'm doing my best to force feed myself..but it's not been very fun. You still love frozen yogurt and lately you've been craving peaches, but that's about it.
We did our hospital tour and birthing class last weekend, Aunt Taryn and I learned a lot. It was a great class, but made me even more anxious for you to be here. T's got plans for various popsicles, music, and alcoholic beverages to make their way into the hospital bag...she's going to be a fantastic coach. We're still working to get your nursery wrapped up and get everything else ready, can't wait for you to get here!
