Doctor Visit

Brad and I went to the doctor this morning for our 35 week visit (I am 35 weeks, 2 days). It was a pretty full visit! My efforts to drastically lower my sodium intake have worked! I have ankles again and have lost 1 pound since the last visit (where I had gained 8 in 2 weeks, mostly water). My blood pressure was 122/70, better than last time, and what is pretty normal for me. My blood sugar was 105. I had the strep B test. If I'm positive, I just have to have IV antibiotics during delivery. I am measuring 37 weeks, but I am not dialated at all yet, so I guess it's going to be a while! But, she felt the head when she checked me, so he's in the right position right now--let's hope he stays there! Because I've been having a good bit of lower back pain, they did a non stress test. It was all good---I'm not contracting, and the baby is doing great. Brady's heart beat is steady in the upper 140s/low 150s. Our next appointment is next Wednesday, July 9, where we will have our 36 week ultrasound! We can't wait to see him and soon meet him!! I am going to pack my hospital bag this week, just to be safe--it's getting close! :)
