Still gestating
I went to the doctor this morning for my weekly check-up. I was really nervous right before we left, not sure why. It's always that anticipation...what is it going to be this time?
But all is good.
My uterus is measuring an inch smaller than it should be, but after feeling around my belly, my doctor said that it felt like there was plenty of baby in there. Sure feels like it to me! She's not on call this weekend, so I've decided I can't have the baby until at least Monday.
People have been so funny... are you in labor? Why aren't you answering your phone? Where are you? Are you at the hospital? If I'm not on IM for a stretch of time, and get back on, at least five people IM me, asking if I'm ok. It makes me giggle.
I'm having more contractions than usual. My doc said that if I start having contractions 10 minutes apart and am uncomfortable, I should come in. With Gus, it was five minutes... but since I deliver so quickly, she wants me in and on antibiotics for my heart murmur before I give birth, something that didn't happen with Gus.
Baby E is moving a lot, doing all the right things. I can't wait to meet him!
