Over 37 Weeks OB Update
Had a doctor's visit this past Thursday, and it seems that I am now between 2 and 3 cm dilated... close to 3 but not quite 3 and 50% effaced. Seems that I haven't really gained weight in the last two visits though... I'm just staying at about the same weight of 140lbs, which I thought was odd because I sure am eating quite a bit these days. I think, compared to when I was pregnant with Sweetpea, I'm much bigger this time around; my tummy just looks huge, and for some reason, my belly seems to have formed some strange patterns as well during this pregnancy. Other than that, baby continues to do well. My prediction is that he'll come a little earlier than the due date of May 16... maybe sometime in the 39th week. Since we are at 38 weeks, that means that he's coming out soon. Yikes! I'm not sure what to think about labor; we've been so occupied lately, but hopefully, daddy will recall some things from the childbirth class we took a couple years ago and be a good, supportive coach. I'm planning to do no meds again and praying that it won't be too bad. Hopefully, Chickpea comes out quickly.
