We had our 36 week appointment today. Can we just say how much we love our Doctor? He's the absolute best!! We learned that Baby H is about 6.5 pounds, his head is down, and he has a strong heartbeat. We're not dilated yet. The Doctor thinks we are on track for the week before or the week after November 19 (due date). Sara continues to track right on to where the Doctor wants her to be and has gained 26 pounds to date still. The Doctor thinks Baby H will be between 8 and 8.5 pounds. Can't wait for the little guy to get here!!!! From here on out we have appointments every week so look for blog updates on this subject weekly!
We also learned that our hospital has new visiting rules in effect because of H1N1. We're glad they are taking precautions but a little bummed that our visitor experience will be a little different than Jeff/Dawn's and Jim/Annie's. The new rules are:
- Visiting hours are 11 a.m. to 8 p.m.
- Visitors must sign in and be screened for influenza-like illness
- Sibling visitors must be age 5 or older
- Non-sibling visitors must be age 16 or older
- Maximum of three visitors per patient at a time
- Visitors are asked to follow hand-hygiene procedures by washing hands or using the antibacterial foam provided throughout the hospital.
So, that means we won't be seeing Sam, Brooke or Lauren at the hospital and we can only have 2 people besides the two of us in at a time. But, we can have all the photo ops we want with everyone once we're home. The most important thing is that Baby H stay well!
