Another check-in (week 34+)

Not much to update! I had another check-in with the OB yesterday. My regular doc is on vacation, so I saw someone else. I was in and out in less than 30 minutes!! Hmm... do you think speedier appointments is a valid reason to switch doctors?

When I was doing the urine and blood pressure checks with the nurses, they asked me how I was coming along with the L&D pre-registration forms. Do I have them filled out and stored somewhere accessible?? Um, no. No I don't. Is it really time to start thinking about that stuff? Geez...

Anyway, all is good in the BBH world. Uterus measuring at 35cms, his heart rate is good and strong, my blood pressure is good. When I lifted up my shirt for the doppler, the doc said that she didn't even need to do the heart rate check. She could tell he was just fine... she could see him moving around like crazy. Funny, I hadn't even noticed. Maybe I am so used to feeling him move, that I don't feel it as much anymore? She still did take his HR, although it took longer than usual since he was moving so much.

At my next appointment in 2 weeks they will do a step-b test, and then I'll be going in weekly until BBH gets here! Looking forward to the 37 week ultrasound to check on his weight... I feel like we might have a linebacker growing in there. Carpal tunnel is still bothering me, numb hands wake me up several times a night and my left wrist has started to bother me at work. Hopefully the brace my doctor prescribed and the ART treatment my chiro gave me today will help!

This weekend we're headed to NH for friends Brittany and Zander's wedding reception, pig-roast style. Should be fun! We'll spend some time with Dan's family while we're there, too. Looking forward to the long weekend!
