35 Weeks Pregnant
Yesterday I went for my OB appointment.
I gained 1 lb in the last 2 weeks, my blood pressure was perfect, her heartbeat was good, urine was clear, and we are measuring exactly 35 weeks. He predicts about 7.5lb of beautiful baby when she is born.
My next appointment, on July 12, is my last bi-weekly appointment. He will do the group B swab then, and then after that, I move on to the weekly appointments.
Since he goes on vacation on August 1, we will start membrane sweeps at my 37 week appointment to see if we can speed things up a bit :) They didn't work for Garett, but maybe she will be less stubborn, lol.
I am feeling a lot of tightness, because she's taking up so much room. She is head down, and my bladder definitely feels this. This wakes me up in the night sometimes with the sudden cramp of having to pee really bad. Not so fun. But at least it's not every night!
This weekend, I am going to mark "packing hospital bags" off my list, I hope. Just one less thing to worry about. And maybe install the base in the truck, and go buy another base and install in the car. I'm struggling to find another base on it's own though. We might be stuck just buying a second seat.
According to the internet, baby is currently about 5 1/4 lbs and 18 inches long.
We are in the home stretch :) 1 more day after today of work! Then nesting and preparing can begin!

Happy last day of work!
ReplyDeleteThe sweep didn't work for Rylie either
I left at like 1:30 :) there was no one there and nothing left to do! Figured I would get a head start on house work lol. And perhaps some secret life of the American teenager in before getting Gman :)
DeleteHe said the sweep may work this time for a second baby, since the body remembers labour, but I highly doubt it. if she's anything like G, she will want to be by the book ! Baha
