After a few days at home...
We have now been home for a few days...Curt and I are starting to figure out what each cry or movement means and are starting to get a routine down. She has been staying awake longer during the days and waking every couple of hours during the night to eat.

38 weeks!
I am now at 38 weeks! We had another appointment last Friday...and still not much progress. He said the baby was a little lower, but that I will probably go right up to my due date if not after. He did say they won't let me go past 42 weeks, but I sure hope the little one comes before that. That is a whole month...yikes! And...in order to have my doctor deliver the baby, I would need to go into labor before tomorrow morning (pretty sure that isn't going to happen), so it looks like we will be having the other doctor deliver Baby Barnett. Well, we have another check-up on Friday...hope there is some progress!

Baby Shower
I just want to thank everyone who attended our baby shower, especially those for coming from far distances. It was wonderfully hosted by my Aunt Dena and Sister-in-law Amy. They did a great job (and thank you for the no games)! We received a lot of great things for our little one and can't wait to use them! It was great to see everyone as well as have everyone over to our house to show off Baby Barnett's room.
36 weeks...
I am now 37 weeks, but last week we had our last lamaze class and a doctor's appointment. They both went good!
We ended our lamaze class with learning how to breath and push at the same time. I think the class was useful and I will be able to say more after Baby Barnett is born, but I think in the midst of labor I am not going to be thinking about the different ways to breath or try to remember which one is best for what stage of labor...I think it is a good class to take to help ease some concerns and anxiety...but I think Curt and I are pretty easy going and will just go with the flow of what is best our baby and I.
At our doctor's appointment...he told me I still had several weeks to go...we have another appointment this coming Friday to see if there is progress. He did tell us if things start to happen, how we can get a hold of someone to find out if the things that are starting are real and if we need to head to the hospital. Our doctor also informed us that he will be out of town at the end of the month. To some this may worrisome, but he has been gone at 3 of our previous appointments where we saw the other doctor and nurse practioner in the office. So at least we are familiar with the other doctor if our doctor so happens to be gone when it is time for Baby Barnett's entrance.
