36wk Appointment!
Posted: 02-19-07 12:30pm

hey guys! i'm home from my doctor's appointment!

she measured me, listened to his heartbeat, & felt his head. he's definitely head down & engaged! woohoo!

i had my group b strep test done. i thought it was going to be super uncomfortable, but it wasn't at all.

while she was down there, i asked her if she'd check my cervix, & she did...

&....

i'm *not* dilated, but i *am* effaced!
she didn't say what percent..
but things are definitely in motion!
woohoo!

i start going every week now!
exciting! it's almost time!

my 2nd & final babyshower was yesterday!
it was a whole lot of fun. i'll post pictures later.
right now .i'm going with .chris & my friend .sara
to get some yummy coffee (decaf for me) & lunch!

were you dialated at all? I'm just asking because I was a fingertip dialated.

I told my Dr. I had sex the night before and he said..."well that'll do it! You couldn't wait 2 weeks to have sex?"lol

Hell no I couldn't!!! hahahaha, I needed it now! Twisted Evil

*come on .gabe! You're hurting your mommy & we wanna see youuuu!*

Mr.
Green .thanks guys!!! i'm really excited. i can't believe it's almost over. it's gone by soooooo fast.

& .nope, .i'm not dilated at all. & .even though she didn't say just *how* effaced i am, she said ".you're not dilated at all, but you are effaced. it's very soft. things are definitely progressing!"

.so we'll see when he cooooomes!

.o.h!!!! .i forgot to mention! in .t.w.o. w.e.e.k.s.... i gained 7lbs Shocked Shocked Shocked .what?! isn't that a lot?! i was super shocked. i haven't been eating anymore than normal! Confused

I was 1 cm dilated and almost 100% effaced and had sex the night of the 6th and within minutes of finishing my contractions picked up from every 10 minutes to 3-5 minutes apart. It upped the contractions but ended up being false labor. I had a section that afternoon.

Jesse was so afraid that he'd hurt the baby. I had to force him to have sex with me the last few weeks of my pregnancy. lol
He didn't mind afterwards though.

wow time goes so fast! You were only 23 weeks when I had Brianne! Hope you're holding your baby boy soon. It won't be long now! He's gonna be here before you know it then you'll be saying this exact same thing to someone else when your son's 13 weeks old Smile
