37 Weeks and Nursery

This will be the final pregnancy post until the baby is born. I now have 3 doctor's appointments a week: 2 non-stress test/amniotic fluid indexs, and a regular doctor's appointment. I went to the doctor for my 37 week appointment and found out that I am not really moving anywhere near towards having this baby on my own and my chances of having her without being induced is less than a 40% chance since I have never been in labor before. So, if I hit my due date this baby will end up being born by c-section due to the increased risks and complications of being induced and having a previous c-section. So, all in all I am a bit frustrated. It would be nice to have some semblance of progress, but apparently that's not going to happen.


This past weekend Brad and I finished the baby's room, by putting up the crib and getting clothes, blankets, & bedding washed. There are a few projects that need to be done, like the hanging of a shelf. But other than that the baby's room is ready for her to make her appearance. Before the baby room was my sewing room so there are before and after pictures for you to see what a mess it was!
The rooms is a little funky because of the way it is laid out so the furniture is a bit squished.


My sewing room

What can I say it was a bit of a mess...

and...

Baby's Room!
 Don't mind the bare wall behind the crib it will eventually have her name hanging on it but until we decide on one it's empty.

The changing table (with the changing pad cover I sewed) and Cherry blossom tree

The rocking chair. The shelf that needs to be hung will have the letter blocks on it.

The "sweet dreams'' blocks I made

Her room turned out really cute... I love the cherry blossom tree. So, I just happened to notice that in one picture the changing pad cover looks mostly green and in the other it looks mostly pink. Is it reversable or am I crazy?
