36w0d

Today was my 36 week doctor's appointment. All appears calm on the home front. I was having contractions off and on all morning so I was hoping for some dilation news. Unfortunately it was not to be.

The first stop, of course, was the weigh in. 163 lbs. I figured since that was the same as last time I would take it. Then the blood pressure. 110/60. Nice and low... although I'm not sure I would know what constitutes low vs. high.

Next the doctor came in. He said I was measuring good and the baby sounded good. His head is nice and low, which I could have told you. DUH!! The final fun time of the morning was of course the checking. This was a little more painful than the last time, maybe because it was a male doctor. And all that discomfort got me nothing. I am still fully closed.

I asked him at what point am I safe to just go ahead and deliver. He told me if I make it 5 more days and then I start having contractions I can just let them happen. So... 5 more days it is than I'm serving the eviction notice!! :-)
