36 week appointment

Heather

Skylar is weighing 8lbs 1oz, his head is measuring 40w and his body is measuring 39w5d. The ultrasound tech said the ultrasound and my BPP for the last 2 visits were reading my due dates on August 2nd or 3rd. Since I only got diagnosed with GD at 34 weeks my doctor said if I can keep my numbers as good as they’ve been the last couple of days he won’t put me on insulin.

He had a friend of mine doing her clinicals do my group B strep test so that was definitely interesting lol. He said he’s not going to check my cervix yet because he doesn’t want to start my labor process just in case 😩😭

I will now see him twice a week with an NST once a week. I’m just hoping and praying by Friday at my appointment he’ll either talk induction or I’ll be about to go into labor myself. I’m going to be getting a birthing ball and evening primrose oil to see if that will start the process. We both fully agree I don’t need to be having a 10lb baby!
