Update.
Had my 3rd stress test done & had my cervix checked; Nothing has changed apparently I have an "unfavorable" cervix... I go back to have the baby's fluid level checked again wednesday and if she is still fine I will be induced on the 4th.

Some Good News :D
Today, I had my second stress test...Morgan is still as active as ever and heartbeat is strong.
I am still not dilated at all; I go back again on Monday for another stress test. But the doctor's have set up a date for me to be induced! I go to the hospital on the 2nd, and the 3rd (im not sure why yet) and then at 730am on the 4th I will be induced. She will be exactly 42 weeks along at that point and they would prefer she not go longer than that. She also has some time to come on her own but me&the doctor's are very doubtful that will happen.
Only 7 more days at most until my babygirl is here!

My Doctor's Appointment.
Today I had a doctor's appointment; the first thing I had to do was a stress test... they hooked two monitors to my stomach, one to moniter her heart rate and the other to monitor my contractions. I got to sit in this huge recliner and just relax it was pretty sweet! Babygirl has a strong heart beat and is very very active (especially for being over 40weeks). I am having contractions 7-9 minutes apart...but I am actually not feeling them.
Then i got my cervix checked again; I was really excited to find out how much progress Ive made; but sadly the doctor has informed me that my cervix is completly closed (0cm dilated) and not even thinned out.
Since I am already 5 days over 40 weeks; and they don't recommend going over 41weeks...I had to get an ultrasound to see if there is enough fluid still. I got to see my baby girl which was really exciting :D Although I could hardly tell what I was looking at. She has a big round head (just like her daddy) and the doctor told me "good luck with that" ....GREAT haha. It took awhile for them to get all the measurements they needed because well my babygirl is very stubborn and does not like to be disturbed! Apparently the fluid levels are perfect and im doing good mentally so they are going to let me wait it out a little bit longer so hopefully she will come naturally! I go back on friday for another stress test&appointment.
But more than likely; it's starting to look like miss morgan will be a september baby.

My First Blog!
I am starting this blog mainly for my oldest sister, Kathryn. She is home for now but will be leaving soon for her race around the world; she will be gone for about a year and leaving when Morgan is about 3months old. To keep her updated on how Morgan is doing and what she looks like; I am doing this blog! I will be posting a picture daily of Morgan so she can watch her grow as well as other random facts and accomplishments; so that way she won't be missing out on much :D
Miss Morgan was due on August 21st, 2009....but it is obviously August 25, 2009; She is currently 4 days overdue. I have a very stubborn baby and cannot wait until I can show her off!
