I went to the doctor today for a regular check up. I am ONE WHOLE CENTIMETER DIALATED!!! Aren't we excited?? Ollie's making his way on outta that dark cave he's living in. WooHoo!! I recently posted on myspace and facebook that I was on semi bed rest so for those of you who saw that....I'm doing much better and that's been lifted. Really it was more of a "go home and prop your feet up" kind of thing. I had a horrible ear infection that was causing pain and a fever. The pain and fever caused my bp to be elevated. My OB wanted me to go home and get some rest so I did. When I went today they checked my bp and it is still a little high for me, but within a good range so the doc wasn't concerned at all.
I go back next Tuesday for another check (we're hoping for more centimeters shaved off) and my ultrasound. WooHoo!!
I had my group B strep test today so I should get results soon. If I test postive for that then they'll have to give me antibiotics when I go into labor. If I test negative then I don't have to worry about anything at all. The nurse said about 40% come back positive. We'll see. I've been lucky thus far.
That's about it for an update. I am looking forward to next week!! My doc seems confident I'll deliver between 38 and 39 weeks!! Me, too!! I hope. Ollie's got a cute little newborn pumpkin onesie and a pumpkin sack so it's only natural that he come in time to wear these. Wouldn't wanna waste clothing now would we??
Until next time!!

ReplyDeleteThat would be too cool... our son's middle name after Josh's middle name, your son born on my husband's birthday! Rock! ;) Tit for tat?
We can't wait for the little pumpkin to arrive. What a blessing you will have. A true gift from God.
