Yesterday (Monday), we went to the private hospital Grangette so that Megan could get her weekly check-up done. The Dr's office is closed because of summer holidays, so we had to meet the Dr at the hospital.
They put a heart-beat monitor on Megan's abdomen to monitor the baby's heart, and also measure contractions. Throughout the weekend, Megan's contractions have been about every 20-25 minutes. Then 3 - 4 hours without a contraction. During the hospital visit, she really didn't have any contractions that the machine would detect.
The Dr said that we should come back on Thursday, Aug. 10th at 8pm. If the baby has not come before then, they will induce labor. In this case, the baby would most likely be born sometime on Friday.
So now it's just a waiting game. Megan is resting and I am working. It's strange knowing that this coming weekend we will have a daughter. We can't wait!
