More slowly, than surely.

We had our sonogram of Blakely today. She is measuring about 6lbs 12 ounces at 37 weeks. Looks like she will be chunky but not huge. We got a picture of her sucking her thumb which I will post later. :) What a cutie.

The doctor diagnosed my rash as PUPPS, which confirmed my self (internet) diagnosis. She gave me some steriods and some sleeping pills. THANK YOU, DR. NEVILLE! I didnt sleep last night at all because of the itch, so I am very thankful for anything that will put me to sleep.

I am only dilated to a 1. :( Boooooo..... I was really hoping for something more than that. Looks like I have a lot of work to do in the self inducing department. :)

On a brighter note, ever since she did my exam I have been having some light contractions... keep 'em coming baby! :)
