Last OB appt

Went to see Dr Stenklyft for the last time today... NST turned out fine, but Baby Boy was NOT cooperating. Dr said he would be out of town until Sun night - so I told him the baby heard him and I would have him before he got back... He said "Nah-I'll see you Tues for the induction" I highly doubt it - that's just the way things have gone this pregnancy!

False alarm...

After having 15 min contractions that went to 5 min for 2 hrs-we went into the Dr to find out they were slowing and nothing much new was happening cervix wise... a little more dialted, but not labor. So we wait.

Making progress

So - been having LOTS of contractions for about 5 wks now... when I mentioned it to the Dr, he went ahead and checked my cervix and I am already 2cm and soft, but high. The good news in that is that means they can go ahead with the induction on the 29th. Amnio to check his lungs is the 28th - I'd rather not have it, but they won't induce without it - unless there is merconium, then they induce regardless. The contractions wake me at night most nights, and are coming more regular - I knew they were working - now I have proof!

Uncooperative Baby

First NST for him and he won't move enough(sleeping) so we had a BPP and he is fine... stubborn, but fine. We will have a BPP done every Mon, and see the OB every Thur for a NST, followed by a BPP if needed til he arrives. Bloodwork indicates the Urso is working to lower my levels... Have only gained 6 pounds. At the 4-3 appt they estimated his size to be 5 lb 15 oz, I am HIGHLY skeptical of that, since the other 2 boys were not that big and I am only 33w5d - that would put him at possibly 9 lb + ??? No way.
