Well, I went for my ultrasound and she is measurig at 39 weeks. They estimated her to be about 7 and a half pounds. My blood pressure was 149/98, so the doc said that we're going to induce in a week or so... He is out of the office next week until friday, so we won't be doing it before then... But I have to go to the doctor's again on monday to see the other doctor to schedule the induction for when my doctor gets back the following week. So, it looks like she'll be here before thanksgiving! Smile


my ultrasound was so cute! The tech said "oh my! Look at that. She has a head full of hair!" lol it was really cute Smile

How far along will you be next week? 39 weeks? I hope your induction works, mine didn't. At my ultrasound they told me mine had a head full of hair too! I think little babies with hair are so cute. It looks like sandra's baby came out with hair too. Must have been something in the water! Good luck! I can't wait to see her!

Hehehe yeah I love it when babies have hair Smile hopefully my induction works... I really don't want to have a c-section... Whatever happens happens tho, I only want what's best for baby bri. I will be 38 weeks next week. She is measuring 2 weeks ahead. I'm only 37 weeks right now. But, like I said, my doctor is out of the office monday-friday next week so, when I go to the appt monday, i'll find out if i'm waiting for him to return on friday, or if the other doctor is going to deliver me. I'm really excited, but i'm nervous too....

Did they put you back on rest with your pressure up so high? My pressure has always been in the 90's over 60's Neutral

No.... I'm not on bed rest... Exclamation that's what i'm confused about. Question I don't understand why but the doctor said that since it fluctuates (if i'm in bed or not) that i'm close enough to my due date just to be delivered.... They hospitalized me for 2 days last week and my blood pressure was good but it still spiked even though I was in bed so I think he just wants me to deliver the baby before I develop preeclampsia. I haven't developed it yet, just pih. He said that the closer to my due date I go, the higher chances are for me to develop preeclampsia and then we'd just have to have a c-section....So.... I don't quite fully understand his reasoning but I guess he's only doing what's best for me and baby brianne. Crying
or Very sad well, at least I hope he is.....
