36 weeks and 2 days update

Today I'm 36 weeks and 2 days pregnant. My appointment was in Woodbury, MN today. I had two contractions that I didn't feel during my non-stress test and the variability of Emma's heart rate was really good. Below are the ultrasound pictures from today.

She has her foot by her head. She is head down and sitting low.

Profile shot with her hand by her mouth and nose, again. I think this little lady may be a thumb or fist sucker, but only time will tell.

This is her face (the dark brownish gray spot at about center of the picture is one of her eyes)...it's not the best picture.

The doctor today did tell me that they will induce me because of the distance it is for us to the hospital. Induction hopefully will be scheduled at my next appointment with them - MN Perinatal (January 3rd). The doctor said they'd induce me at 39 weeks (if I go that long). I hope I can make it that far and see if they'd do the induction during the later part of week 38.

I'm feeling pretty good and hopefully we can be ready for our little ray of sunshine when she comes (whether it is on her own terms or by induction).
