A quick update since I can check the stats and see that lots of people are checking back here regulary - I’m assuming to see if we’ve had a baby ;)

No baby yet. Doesn’t look like there will be a baby anytime soon. Hopefully I don’t eat those words…

-Baby C is still head down but still very high (hasn’t dropped even a bit)

-My belly is measuring only 37 weeks today. Dr Shuen thinks maybe some of the fluid is going down or the change in baby position caused the decrease. He is not concerned…maybe even a bit pleased.

-I passed the 2 hour glucose test so no gestational diabetes. Unfortunately I still haven’t been given the go ahead to gorge myself on Christmas chocolate. 

-I don’t think I mentioned I lost 2lbs last week and didn’t gain any this week. Blood pressure is fine and there is no protein in my urine.

-Ultrasound I had on Monday was fine. I will proabably have another one in the New Year.

The plan right now is to just wait and see. I will continue to go to weekly ob appts. He has no plans of even thinking about inducing me until the baby drops.

So overall a much better appt than last week. I’ve actually been feeling pretty good this past week. John’s dad was down so I was able to get a ton of stuff done. Baby C’s room is now sorted out and pretty well organized. I even managed to pack the bags we need for the hospital.

I think part of my energy might be a result of knowing I have help til the New Year. John is off til January 2nd and we don’t have much planned beyond relaxing and getting some stuff sorted out around the house. I am actually on break right now from putting all their current toys away. We will have one whole day of a toy free house tomorrow - I should take some pictures!
