Getting Close

I went to the doctor yesterday (35 weeks and 3 days) and because of all of the pregnancy issues I've had, she said that I won't go full term to 40 weeks, which does make sense. Full term is 37 weeks which is 1.5 weeks away, but she said that it'd be better if I was at least 38 weeks (February 9th). At 38 weeks, if I'm dilated, then we'll induce. If I'm not dilated, then we'll probably wait until I am dilated to determine when to induce, if it doesn't happen naturally, but the baby is definitely coming before February 23rd. I will be 38 weeks pregnant in ONLY 2.5 weeks. It's so soon! I'm super excited to finally see our little one, but I'm really nervous about the whole process of actually getting him out!!! Well, let's hope that we get to move in this week, so I'll have at least 2 weeks in the new house before the baby comes!

That reminds me, we've tentatively decided on a name...Ryan Yi-zen Tang. I will try my best to refer to him now as Ryan and not the baby or him. :) We're still working out how we want to spell his middle name, but it'll be something along those lines. Yi-zen kind of sounds like Ethan, so I'm thinking about calling him Ethan instead of Ryan. I figure that once we see him, he'll look like a Ryan or an Ethan and we'll figure out what to call him then. Yes, I procrastinate on everything.
