My weight and growth checked out fine, my blood pressure was 120/80 (which is the highest I've been this pregnancy - I'm normally 100/60), and my only question was about what an "eviction notice" would look like since Carly came early and we did not have to worry about it. She began to tell me about this during my exam, but then stopped. Her tone changed and she stated that she was not too sure an eviction notice would be needed. She had a feeling he may start his exit strategy within the next 48 hours. (This was around 9:30 on Friday morning.) She then later said that she was around 50% Dave and I would be making our way to the hospital sometime this weekend. Well, it is now 10:30 on Sunday night and Dave and I are still sitting at home waiting.
Our family has tried to "help" this process along. Friday night we went out to dinner at Brixx, the same restaurant we ate at the night before Carly came. We have also been on many, many family walks. Thursday we walked our neighborhood loop (0.8 mile) twice, put Carly to bed, and then I went back out alone for two more loops. We repeated this on Friday night after dinner as well. Saturday I walked 2 loops during Carly's nap, then 2 loops with Dave and Carly after dinner, and then 3 more loops after Carly was in bed. For a total of 15 loops since Thursday evening (weather prohibited me from being able to walk today). The joke around the neighborhood is that the neighbors will know when we've checked into the hospital because I won't be walking around the neighborhood, and they are right... back to walking I'll go tomorrow since the rain seems to have moved out.
