37 week update

I was 37 weeks on Sunday - less than three weeks to go!!! Crazy how time flies, honestly. I had a quicky doctor's appointment yesterday and my blood pressure is great, baby's heart sounds excellent, and everything else is progressing normally. No major complaints or complications to report. Now we just continue to wait on her arrival!! I could potentially go into labor at any time, but I think she'll probably hang out in there for a while. I was late and my sister was late, so it tends to run in the family!

We've been having some issues with the cats getting into Avery's crib, so we went out and bought a scat mat - basically it's a clear pad you set in or on whatever you don't want your pets to get to and it delivers a mild shock to their feet. Ben said it feels like static electricity. There are multiple intensity settings, so we've started with the lowest one. I have a couple of videos of the cats' reactions, pretty funny stuff, and I'll try to get those loaded up soon. We put the mat in the crib last night and at some point during the night I did hear one of the cats get in there, jump around a bit and then make a beeline out of our bedroom, so hopefully it's done the trick. We've heard that all it takes is once, so we shall see. We'll leave it in there for a couple of days to reinforce that they are not to be in there.

That's all for now, we'll keep you posted with any news!
