Another doctor visit, another ultrasound

We had another doctor appointment today, complete with ultrasound. Everything was fine, other than Janelle’s cervix is a little on the thin side. They hooked her up to a machine to make sure she wasn’t having contractions. (Women have contractions throughout pregnancy in the later months, I’ve learned, but you just don’t want to have them more than once in a while.) She wasn’t. It looked like all is good, but they invited her back in a week just to make sure. We go back on Monday, and until then they told her to stay off her feet as much as possible. What? Now I’m doing everything – cooking, cleaning, laundry…I hope she likes take-out and we don’t need clean clothes.

All is good. We’re gearing up, and getting ready. We need to find a pediatrician soon, but have a couple in mind.

Below are some photos and videos from today’s visit.

Until next time….

David and Janelle, I enjoyed reading your day to day account of the arrival of the little one. As a seasoned and wise parent of almost grown children (Read: tired, finacialy drained, and no longer hip) I would love to give you some advice on childrearing. Read Bill Cosby's "Fatherhood" or go watch the video. Toss all the other books, advice columns, and magazines in the trash. And oh yeah, it is amazing how much time and thought you have put into this Blog site. I got $50 that says that wont last much longer. He He. Best of luck you two and I cant wait to see the little munchkin. Be well and God Bless. Jeff Bonay
