We're still rolling along here! Things are good. I had an appointment today and the baby looked great. I asked the nurse to put me in the room with the u/s because last time the doctor mentioned whenever I was in there she'd take a quick look at my fluids. They looked great. Lots of pockets of amniotic fluid. Last pregnancy they tried induction around 36 weeks for low fluid, so I just want to keep an eye on it.
Baby is still head down and I can feel exactly where his tush is...and his knees and feet giving nice sharp jabs. He's a very active little guy.
She mentioned I looked like I was measuring small, but when she measured me I was actually ahead, so it must be either the way I'm carrying or his positioning. I still feel huge. HUGE! The braxton hicks contractions are still there and still pretty strong, but she did an u/s today so if my cervix was shortening I'm sure she'd have mentioned it.
I've been struggling with not feeling very well again, especially after eating, but at least it's mainly when I eat and not all the time now. Tired, yup. But, I think that is typical with any woman at this point in pregnancy who is also working full time, running after a toddler and completely redoing their living arrangements, lol. I don't think that is indicative of much at all.
Back I go in two weeks for my last check up with my normal doctor until I have her replacement while she's visiting her daughter and start my weekly appointments. How is it we've neared that time already??? Until then, finalizing our list of people to help watch our son when labor hits while my in-laws travel here, finish up my son's big boy room and the nursery re-transformation, finish up gifting and selling all our stuff to make room, do a big cleaning and cooking spree... Let's just say, I'll keep myself busy.
God Bless.
