36 5/7 weeks - Not much new this week, but that's a good thing. We had our BPP before the OB appointment and passed after Baby Miller finally decided to wake up from a little nap. The AFI was 14.46 this week, still doing well. Nothing new at our OB appointment. Dr. E. said I really wasn't dilated much more that last week if any at all. Then she sent me over to OP Labor & Delivery to have some labs drawn, so they will already have those results when I come in to deliver.
Dr. E. has taken a lot of time over the last week to take charge of the situation and personally make sure everyone is prepared for us when we arrive, so that is really reassuring. It's nice to know that when we go in to deliver, the staff will have some idea about what's going on, since it might be a relatively fast delivery.
We've been enjoying some great food this week that Kenny's Mom and Dad brought up for us. Thanks Cheryl, it's all really good - best turkey and noodles I've ever had!! Not that Kenny doesn't make a mean frozen pizza, but I do appreciate the home cooked meals! My Mom and Dad also came up this weekend and helped around the house again, which really helps us out a lot too - thanks guys! We got our second guest bedroom pretty much set up here at Hotel Miller and the new office is mostly up and running too. The baby's room is a disaster area, but we have some time to get it ready.
I set it up for my Dad and my friend, Kristi, to post updates on the blog for us when we are in the hospital, so they can keep everyone updated and post some cute baby pictures as soon as we get them! Well, that's about it for now. I'll update if anything new happens. Also, Happy Birthday to Uncle Kris today!!!

Jen you both are huge inspirations and blessings to everyone whom reads you're blog. Thank you for sharing! You're in our prayers daily. Things don't always look easy but the great thing God will always bring peace within us to overlook the storm. I haven't been able to drop off to Mel but thank you for blessing Shaylin and I this Christmas. My coat is amazing...
Many Blessings and Love,
Christine
Hey thanks for the shout out with the happy birthday
Jen,
The 3 of you are still in my prayers. I know that bed rest can be a bore, but every day that Baby Miller has to get stronger is a blessing. If you need a different selection of books or videos, please call me or have Kenny tell Steve and we'll send something over to you.

I found your blog through Baby Claire's. You guys are in the homestretch now. You will be in our thoughts and prayers as you approach your due date. We will say many LUNG CHANTS for you and hopefully Baby Miller (my vote is a girl) will be able to avoid ECMO but just remember that it's another machine to help the baby. ECMO saved our baby's life and he has no long term effects from it. I'll be sure to check up on you guys now that I found your blog.
Love

Hi guys,
I know you are getting close to that due date. Make sure some one give us a call or email. I will be in New York during your due date, but Roger will be waiting to hear.
All is going well here, I dislocated my elbow at the end of Jan. and that has changed my life a bit , but now I am doing physical therapy and heading the right direction.
Take good care of yourself and know you are in our prayers and in our thoughts.
Lori
