Good news! I had my appointment on Monday, and Cody changed positions and is now head down and ready to go again. It was a good appointment too -found out that I am 1cm dilated and 75% effaced. The next day I started having some minor contractions, and then he dropped. I went from carrying him very high to him literally disappearing...
Here is a comparison picture... the picture on the left was taken last week. The picture on the right was taken on May 13th.
Hopefully we will have more progress in the upcoming days. We are so anxious to meet our baby boy!

Breech!
Cody has moved to a breech position and if he doesn't move by Monday afternoon, he will have to be delivered via c-section at 39 weeks. Hopefully he will move on his own this weekend and we can avoid that. However, if he doesn't, I'll make peace with delivering him in a different manner than planned.
I was breech...and I came out ok!

Nothing new to report
Showing some signs of pre-labor, but nothing major enough to think he is about to make his world debut. As of right now, we are looking at delivery in the next two weeks. Because of the nerve and ligament pain I am having in the rib area, I am hoping we don't go one second beyond his due date!

His Nursery is Done!
We have a sort of jungle theme going on in his nursery with plenty of stuffed animals! We went with a blue decor using the Amy Coe safari theme and the fisher price rainforest collection. The walls are naked though, in need of some art! Here are a few pictures...

Chaos!

Here are some of Cody's first pictures....
Ultrasound on Jan 3, 2008: The U/S tech called him a very cooperative baby. He gave us a variety of poses to view and even provided us with some entertainment while he chomped on his hands! I can't wait to see what he looks like when he is born.
The money shot!
