Hi ,

Yep, the baby has been head down for awhile. I could feel the dr

pushing on it! S/he hasn't moved out of position for awhile. The

head is down and the backbone runs down my right side.

I get 6 wks leave for a vaginal delivery or 8 for a csection. I also

saved all of my vacation this year so that I could take it off and

get paid (that's another 4 weeks) and then I will take off however

much is left as unpaid leave to equal 12 weeks. The most my company

will let me take is 12 wks unless I go on extended medical leave.

I'm sure it will go so fast (

How's Ella? She's almost 4 mos?! One of my co-workers just brought

in his 3 mos old DD and she was soooo cute. By 3 mos she was already

flirting and playing with me. Can you tell I have a lot to learn

about the milestones that babies achieve? I was so impressed with

her.

I hope that everything has calmed down at your house since the

delivery. You had quite a hectic birth story. BTW, I'm thinking

about taking a 5 mile hike (like you did) to get things moving next

week.

I'm leaning that way myself. It will be so cool to find out. Still

not sure on names...will probably wait until after the birth to

decide.
