39.5 Weeks

Today is Tuesday; I'm due Friday.  I think everyone is ready for this kid to come.  I had a check up yesterday and the doc checked me - 1cm and 50% effaced.  I was surprised in the sense that I have so many contractions, so much low back pressure and pains to not be far along at all.  But honestly, not that surprised.  I'm just not one to go early (or at all).  I had the doctor strip my membranes and she wants to check the baby's size at my ultrasound on Thursday.  He hasn't been measured at all since the perinatologist since this late in pregnancy ultrasound size estimates need to be at least four weeks apart to be somewhat accurate.  NSTs and fluid have been great.  If baby is growing decently, we will just keep waiting and I'll check back with my doctor on Monday.

My belly measured 37-38cm yesterday, I'm up 31 lbs, and BP was about 100/70.   


 

39 weeks with Gabrielle (left) and baby boy (right).  Seems about the same??  I am going to laugh so hard if after all these tests he comes out over 7lbs :)
 

Sister and brother!  Gabs loves to pull up my shirt to "see" brother.  She loves to [try] and do this in public too.  Haha. 

Where I feel I spend the majority of my life these days.  Good thing baby boy always does so well on his tests :)
