Our 36w5d doc appt

Well, our appointment went well. I love the doc I got to see - she is very caring and very thorough and didn't dismiss any of my concerns.

I am not dilating any more, so no more progress on that front. However, I did have a trace of protein in my urine and my BP was higher for me 136/something. So - I get to take another day off work today b/c I have to do the 24-hour urine catch and I am not taking that jug and catcher to work! UGH! I know, I know TMI! I also will be missing class tonight to take in my jug and have blood drawn.

I also measured slightly big, so I get another ultrasound next week. I figure I have measured a bit big all along and did with Nate too, so I am not worried. But I also wasn't going to turn down another ultrasound! Oh and HB was 140s.

All in all it was OK - just not liking the 24-hour test - yuck! While it wasn't all sun shiny news, I did feel very comfortable and listened to when I left. I am not too worried about the results from these tests b/c we are 37 weeks tomorrow and baby is still moving around a lot.

Hi! We finally made it over to your blog. I can't wait to get our blonde boys together. I had high pressure and protein (and 24 hour urine, too) at the end of Digby's tenure. Eat lots of protein and take it easy -- you're almost there! Can't wait to see the new addition.
