OB Appointment - 37 Weeks 3 Days

I only gained a pound this week...yippy! Baby's heartbeat dropped down into the 140's, it has been 150's at most of my appointments. My blood pressure is still good, but top number is higher than it has been 132/70. My Strep B came back negative, so no antibiotics needed during delivery.

We are making progress this week too! I am dilated to 1cm and 80% effaced. This is a big change from last week as I wasn't dilated or effaced at all. Dr. Emm filled in for Dr. Dudley this week. I really liked her a lot. She thought I would still be pregnant next week, so only time will tell. I go back for my weekly check up next Monday and if she still hasn't arrived by Wednesday I go in for one last sonogram.

  1. I know I commented on Facebook, but I looked back where I was at 37 weeks - just soft and 1cm. 38 was 1cm & 70%, 39 was 1-2cm & 80%...and, I had Drake two days later! Either way you are ready. :-) Can't wait to hear when she makes her appearance!

    I've heard Dr. Emm is awesome, but I never met her.

  2. I know I looked at you blog to see you changes and was like OMG! I hope she waits until next week, because I wasn't happy with the on call doctors this week. Dr. Emm was awesome! I think I like her better than Dudley. She just took more time with me and I was able to ask her lots of questions without feeling rushed or stupid.

  3. Yes...things can change in an instant!

    I have heard that Dr. Emm is wonderful and I'm sure it helps that she has had 2 or 3 kiddos of her own where Dr. Dudley hasn't had any. My friend, Janell, would love Dr. Dudley - she didn't really want to know anything throughout her pregnancy. Strange, huh?
