Had another appt. yesterday
This one was somewhat exciting.
Had a Strep B test,
and she told me that I'm 2 cm. dilated and 75% effaced.
Woot, woot!
(I wasn't really expecting to be that far...)
She told me if I am at least 4-5cm. dilated, she'll induce me on Thurs. Oct. 14.
Otherwise, it'll have to wait.
And I dunno when we'll decide to do it if we can't do it on the 14th.
So I gotta get walking, jumping, etc. to get this little girl out!!
I REALLY hope it'll work out for that day.
Peyton was FULL of questions while we were there.
("Mommy, why do you have to get undressed?" "Why is the Dr. checking the baby?' "Is the baby ready to come out?" "How does the Dr. get the baby out?")
etc.
I'm 36 1/2 weeks now.
And really still feel fairly good.
My back hurts a lot,
and my ribs.
I rigged up a new "bed" last night with a total of 6 pillows arranged "just so."
It really helped me sleep,
I was quite comfortable actually.
If only I didn't have to go potty every hour....
I've also noticed my circulation is really bad lately.
Its ridiculous how fast I get a "dead arm" or my legs fall asleep.
I have prob 10-15 contractions a day.
I've also had some bad cramping.
but I'm not miserable by any means.
And I'm SUPER excited for baby shower on Friday.
:)
Here are pics from 36 weeks.
