We had another short but sweet appointment today. I gained a mess of weight, that I am not happy about, but the doctor isn't concerned. My blood pressure is great and the baby's heart rate was around 140. I'm two days away from 34 weeks, but measuring at 36 weeks. Not sure if it's holiday treat related, a certain little boy is going to make an early appearance, or if he's just going to be a big boy. Either way she wants me to watch my Braxton Hicks a little more closely and if they are too close together call, because it may not be painful, but they want to make sure he doesn't come too early. And I've had several painful contractions but they haven't been regular at all (except that one time & we think it was due to dehydration), but I still need to watch it. You know the drill: don't over do it, take breaks, lay down, relax, drink plenty of water, the whole 9 yards. In two weeks we'll be back to the doctor and after that we're ready to start our every week appointments until he arrives!
Now to finish (or start) his room and get all of my affairs in order!
Just 3 weeks until I'll start sending you a boat load of labor dust! :)
