Here are the stats from this week's OB appointment:
Blood pressure- 122/77 :-)
Trace of protein in urine :-/
Weight gain varies between 24-26 lbs so far due to water retention and time of day! :-)
Pitting edema :-(
Backache with Braxton Hicks contractions :-(
Baby's heartbeat averaged 150. :-)
Fundus measured spot on at 35 weeks! :-)
NST- reactive! :-)
Blood sugars- reasonable levels with insulin :-)
This week the OB did the Strep B test, and also completed an internal check. All the contractions are working! The cervix is softening, the external part of the cervix is opening but the internal part of the cervix is still closed....so no dilation to report yet. Speaking of contractions Caitlin had one during the NST and the baby's heart rate dropped slightly. Of course this worried Caitlin, but the OB didn't seem concerned when the NST strip was reviewed. Gracyn is head down but not engaged yet. ....We are looking forward to next week's appointment already!
