Today's Doctor Appt

Well, I went in for my 38 week check up
today. My bp was 145/92 where it's been
for a while now and I had trace amounts of
protein in my urine. Yay! Aren't I lucky.
Got in the exam room and the doc decided
he wanted to do an ultrasound to check my
fluid levels and all after yesterday. My
fluids looked great and my little one is
already measuring in at 7lbs 13 oz. Then,
he asked me when I wanted to have this
baby. All I said was soon. He asked me if
I wanted to wait for spontaneous labor but
I told him with everything that's been
going on and all the contractions I'm
ready to be done. Plus I'm already 4.5 cm.
So....
I GET TO HAVE MY BABY TOMORROW!!!
I can't believe he acutally said it. I
think my bp and the protein had some to do
with that decision too. He said he
couldn't do it Friday because he promised
his wife he wouldn't induce anyone this
Friday. I told you he had a reason for
wanting to wait unitl next week. We have
to be there at 5 in the morning and I
think he's going to try breaking my water
first and if my contractions don't
regulate on their own we will go forward
with pitocin. Be expecting lots of updates
and pics tomorrow or Friday!!!

photobucket. Have you been able to see my
belly pics?

Nope, I can't see anyone's pictures that
uses photobucket. For some reason, the
filters at work block them out. I used to
have to go home and logon to see certain
people pics, but we had the Internet
cancelled at home because we are trying to
get some stuff paid off; so we got rid of
all the 'unnecessary' bills.

I hope she has hair! I forgot to mention
that she's still sunny side up which
totally sucks for me.

She'll more than likely flip once your
uterus starts contracting.
Getting on all 4's helps flip them!!

Get on your hands and knees. You still
have time for her to flip over.
