Sprouty-kins Update!

i'm back from my appointment so it is once again time for your sprout update!

uterus measuring a little big this time (37 weeks when i'm actually barely 36 weeks). heart rate great (still in the 150's). got my group b strep test done.
and........
i'm about 1/2 cm dilated, 50% effaced and the baby is at -1 station.
being induced during week 39 is a possibility. (bean got stuck coming out and they nearly had to do a c-section. they don't want me to go over my due date and have a TOO BIG baby. plus doctor is going out of town 3 days after my due date.) i'm sure you realize this doesn't make me sad. although it would feel weird knowing my baby's birthday in advance....

let me tell you, i can tell the baby moved down! it is pushing against my pelvic bones all the time. talk about uncomfortable! ok, down right painful at times! i was hoping for a little more action "down there", but i'm one day away from being 36 weeks so i guess it is a good start.

OH and the other good news..... I LOST ONE WHOLE POUND!! (believe me this is nothing to worry about since i've gained around 35 pounds total so far) he he he! :)

so, next appointment in a week! remember your homework- think dilation and effacement!!!
