Not long now...

I am 39 weeks + 2 days pregnant. I had my weekly check up today. I was the first to be seen after lunch. Ive never been in and out so quick. Talk about service! My sample was clear. I gained 4 lbs in 2 weeks, which puts me to 27 lbs gained throughout the pregnancy. My blood pressure was up a bit from last time, but not alot to worry about. Baby boy is head down and engaged, bum sticking out the front and very active. His heartrate was 140 beats per minute. He was kicking and punching all over. We could even hear sloshing around and him mimicking breathing. He makes me so happy and proud, and he isnt even here yet! I was checked internally, and Im happy to report I am already 3-4cm dilated. YAY! Its good to know the pelvic pain and contractions Ive been having this past week were for a reason. The doctor is very happy with my progress. She is confident I will have this baby naturally, likely within the next week. PHEW! What a relief :) Its kind of nerve wracking not knowing exactly when Ill have this baby. But its good I dont have to be induced or have a c-section. Its nice to have good doctors, who listen to your concerns and help follow through with your wishes. Well, time for me to have a lay me down. Since I was examined Ive been quite sore and crampy. Ill keep you posted!
