35 Weeks and Counting...

Today I'm 35 weeks pregnant! I can't believe it. Time has flown by so quickly and my body has changed SO much in such a short period of time. Yesterday Dave & I had another Dr.'s appointment w/ Dr. Horlacher. Payton is currently measuring approximately 20 inches and 5 ½ lbs! I asked Dr. Horlacher if Payton's head has dropped any further and he said "it’s impossible w/o you being in labor." He also said that she is at the point where a baby would normally be after 5 hours of labor. It is wonderful my labor time could theoretically be shorter, but it has been rough on me physically carrying her so low. I truly feel like I'm fighting gravity everyday. On the bright side, Dr. Horlacher said she's doing excellent. It gave both Dave & I a wonderful sense of relief and a nice early Christmas gift!
