38 Weeks

Here is another belly shot. Same as the rest, I must like that side:)


I had my weekly appt yesterday. This doctor(I go to a group of about 4-5 docs) said I was at at 1.5cm. Hmmm. I replied so how come last week the Dr. told me I was a 2-3? He said oh, with a slight pause, well, you never go down. He then goes on to say I probably didn't go in as deep, as I saw that you were hurting, I may have been able to get in two...thanks doc for the gentleness, but what am I? He also told me I was 80% effaced. So there are the stats, for those that care.

I can't believe she could be here anytime. She did give me a little scare. Last night as I was lying in bed to go to sleep, I thought, she doesn't seem to be moving as much. So I decided to do kick counts. Well usually it takes 10 min or less to get in the 6 kicks. It took just about the whole hour. Well, after feeling a little uneasy, I tried to go to sleep. I tossed and turned all night, waking up in hopes of feeling her moving. However, her night time routine is pretty mellow, if much that I notice, so I don't know why I expected to to feel much through the night. Anyway, long story semi-short...I woke up about 3:30 feeling quite uncomfortable about the situation, woke up Nate, and left for the hospital. They hooked me up, had to wake her up with that vibrating noise thing(what a surprise, she was asleep:)), and monitored me. Everything turned out well. They let me go and by the time I got home it was time to get ready for work. I laid back down for a "few minutes," slept through my reset alarm, and woke up to find I fell asleep and had to be to work in 30 min(good thing I showered the night before). Sorry for the novel. I am glad I went although it turned out to be fine and she sure made up for it today:) Needless to say, I am very tired and will be going to go bed very shortly.
