Mama's leaving the house for a doctor's appointment. I've already showered and now I'm sitting in my bathrobe waiting for go time. It should just be our standard weight taking (I can't wait to see how much weight the 'roids helped me gain - last time it was 4 lbs in a week), pee-in-a-cup, measure the tummy, listen to the heartbeat, and then my favorite, a cervical check. I have a weird feeling today and had some acute pain last night in my sides, but it could just be ligament pain, as it has been in the past.
Wish us luck!
Update:
I'm back from the doctor's office and safely on the couch. Everything is looking good. My cervix is still high and somewhat closed. Dr. Parman explained that she doesn't want to be aggressive with her checks, so I may be a little dilated, but she would not "push in" enough to check on that (yes, that's how she's checking). She can feel Chalupa's head near the opening - not a good or bad thing, but I'm happy that he's still head down!
In interesting news, I actually lost about 5 pounds since last week? It's got to be water weight, considering that my wedding rings are fitting again and my feet no longer look like over inflated latex gloves. Upside to bed rest?
