35 week update

Went to the doctor today for my 35 week appointment. Luckily my weight gain was normal THIS time. :o)
  • By measuring fundal height the baby is measuring 36 weeks
  • By palpitation the doctor estimates the baby is about 6 lbs.
  • Dilated to 1 cm, about 30% effaced - making progress, but by no means does this mean that labor is around the corner. :)
  • need to do some "collections" to rule out preeclampsia since my BP is a bit elevated and I have some other abnormal levels from a urine sample (i know yuck!)

I thought about Preeclampsia with some of the stuff you were saying you had. I wish you the best, you will do great! Heard Angela is going to be in the room...it's her turn to help you :) See you Sat!!!
