Cute Pictures!!

Well, Dean is a week old today!!! He's doing really well and we're starting to get used to being a family of four! Here are some cute pics from the week!

Introducing....

Dean Matthew!!!

We got to the hospital to be induced yesterday at 4am and he was born at 10:03am. He weighed 7 pounds even and was 19.5 inches long. He's just beautiful. His big brother was soooo excited to meet him. We'll post the video of that later.

and here we go!!!!

Well, I just got back from my doctor's appointment and there's been lots of change since last week. I had an ultrasound today and Dean's estimated to weigh 6 pounds 7 ounces. My doctor is starting to get concerned because his belly is measuring about 3-4 weeks behind (which could just mean he's a little baby). My amniotic fluid dropped and my placenta looks aged, so they're concerned that my placenta is not doing everything it should be. Based on that, he said he was going to induce me on Monday.

Then he checked and I'm 3-4 cm dialated and 100% effaced. I'm also having contractions, but just nothing regular. He said he really doesn't expect me to still be pregnant on Monday. I've noticed a lot more contractions today than usual and I definitely feel different, so hopefully that means that Dean will be here soon! Monday at the latest though!
