No Change

Well, my doctor visit was uneventful. My blood pressure was still high when I went in (132 over 100 for those of you keeping score), so I did the lay on my side trick again and it went down to below normal. So my wishes of less bed rest are not going to come true. I also lost 5 pounds in the last 4 days...all of which I was told was retained water, so the resting must be working. Baby is fine. She kicked the doctor while I was being examined, so maybe she's letting her know that the time is near :) No change in her status yet, but the doctor guesses she's about 6 pounds. She said I'm carrying small, but that it's not uncommon for the baby to tuck herself into the belly so that what appears to be a 6 pound baby comes out at 8 pounds. I also found out that I carry some bacteria that 30% of women carry that requires me to have IV antibiotics when I deliver. No big deal...just another thing to know ahead of time, which I greatly appreciate. We also decided that 38 weeks is the latest we will go, so in another week and a half, Baby G will be here!
