38 Weeks! Woohoo

Had my 38 week appointment today, I saw a different Doctor today and she was on time....shocker! Anyway, baby looks good - heart rate around 140 so she was happy with that. Before she checked my progress of course she informed me that most first time moms go late and that I should prepare myself for this. I get so tired of hearing that - ugh, yes I know, I won't prepare myself to go late because I don't want to and leave me alone unless I'm in labor!!! Anyway, I feel better now. I'm making progress and currently at 2 cm and of course as she leaves..."I'll see you next week...if not sooner". Why do they do that??? Seriously you just told me that I'll most likely go late now you give me false hope that I may go in the next week. I hate them! haha until next week....

37 Weeks

Every Wednesday is doctor day from here on out to my due date. The doctor I was scheduled to see today was out sick so unfortunately I got to see my non-favorite doctor of the bunch...again! I swear its unbelievable, I like all the doctors in the group except this one and I have to see her the majority of the time from here on out. ugh - she isn't a bad doctor but she cannot be on time. I think it's impossible for her to do! 20 minutes late again this morning and I was the only one in the office. According to the nurse she was stuck in traffic - yeah right just like the last 10 times I've seen her! Anyway....I digress.

37 weeks - My fundal height is fine, some extra fluid in there so he's still well protected and happy. Starting to make some progress even though it doesn't mean he's coming anytime soon its nice to know he will eventually be escaping! The swelling is getting worse and I'm not sure if I will ever see my ankles again :(

Until next week...

36 Weeks

Well we have finally hit the home stretch...the last month! Had my 36 week appt today and got to see our little guy on the sonogram. We didn't get very good pictures since he's head down and curled up pretty tight. The one picture she did print out is of the back of his head (that's one for the books ;). Other than that everything seems to be on target and looking good.

The swelling has begun and unfortunately the tossing and turning at night is only getting worse. Dan has pretty much had it with me at this point. Hopefully he will decide to come a little early - even though I doubt it - it would be nice!
