36 weeks 1 day check up/ ultrasound

Shawn

Today was a much needed appointment, friday we were what seemed like active labor, to be sent home and told it was Braxton hix, then to spend 2 hours at the dr for an already scheduled appointment. They let me know i was still only dialated to 1 and that baby was sideways and also to find out at least 2 weeks before i should have been having weekly high risk check ups one day ultrasound and other day non stress test.. just at that appointment i had 5 major contractions... they sent me home. I have been resting a lot over the weekend.

Today i had scheduled ultrasound with my high risk specialist. They said everything looks great.. then they asked me for a 3rd time how many weeks i am, i said 36 1.. the tech measures 3 times, baby is measuring 38 weeks 3 days, and dr says she is about 8lbs..

I cried! Tears of joy and omgosh, also said that she had turned head down.. so they definitely gave me the clear to have baby anytime soon.

I love being pregnant but my body is shot and im tired of being on bed rest..

So come on baby!! No way my body can handle her till April 9th.. im not worried about her size either, her older brother almost 20 years ago was 9lbs 8oz only problem i had with him was his head got stuck.

Wish us productive luck!!
