so I went to the doctor again today and lo and behold he told me I was having a contraction... a Braxton Hicks contraction that is. He was feeling my stomach trying to figure out what position Ava is in (she's head down ready to go!), when he said "oh, do you feel that? your having a contraction." Nope! Didn't feel a thing. By touch I could tell that my stomach was hard, but other than that nothing. About two years ago my friend Heidi let me feel her stomach while she was having a BH contraction, but for some reason I thought it felt different. Anyway, after learning this tidbit of information I now know I've been having them for a while, and should be able to tell from here on out when I'm having one. That might be help full in the future telling the fake ones from the real ones.
Oh, and one other piece of news I got today, our little one shouldn't be a 10lb baby like her Daddy! YAY!!!!! Of course she could surprise us and gain 6lbs in the next 4 or 5 weeks, but Dr. Perryman said she'd probably end up in the upper 6s or 7s. Perfect!

Wow...you're getting so close, Sarah. Can't wait to hear all of baby Ava's stats in a month or so.
Here's hoping for a 6-7 pound baby.
You're in my prayers, girl.
You look beautiful! I know I was so busy the last few weeks getting ready...but do enjoy some time together!!
