Well, it's Tuesday. Which means we had another OB check up today. Today's report is I'm 3cm dilated and still 50% effaced. When I asked the Dr. this time if I had at least another week to go she simply smiled and said "Any day now." I said no, that's not the answer I was looking for. Can you at least tell me if I'll make it into March? That's only 5 more days. To which she smiled and said, "Any day now."
On a side note, my blood pressure was still in a good range, so she won't be inducing me at the moment. I'm still supposed to continue to monitor it on my own. If I get a high reading and am unable to get it back down on my own, I'm supposed to call. I'm assuming that means they'll look into inducing labor at that time, but this at least buys me a little more time. I mean really, all I really want to do is get into March. Is 5 days too much to ask?
Baby's heartbeat was strong and consistent with the last few readings with his heartbeat in the 140's (that's beats per minute) She's estimating his weight to be just over 7 lbs at this point. R was 7lbs 2 oz at the time of her birth (10 days before her due date) if you'd like to use that as a reference. This one isn't officially due until March 18th. He's going to be bigger than his sister.
I think I'm going to put myself on bed rest. I really want another March baby. I'm off to my happy place now. Talk to you all later.
