37 weeks

Friday I went to the doctor again for my 37 week visit. Everything is still normal. I did not gain any weight this week. My blood pressure was even higher than last week, 120/70, but that's still really good. Apparently it is normal for the BP to go up quite a bit in the last few weeks. There was also more protein in the urine. Because my feet and ankles are still swelling, and now I can't wear my rings or get my watch around my wrist, Dr. Shaw ordered some labs just to get some more information. Nothing is elevated enough to definitley be preeclampsia and she does not expect anything abnormal to come back from the blood work. If there is anything abnormal they'll call me this week.

The baby’s heart rate is still good in the 150s. My belly measures just a little larger than normal. Braylon is still trying to poke a hole through my side or break a rib with his feet. I'm getting soooo close! I'm really getting impatient now. I'm ready to see him and hold him, and I feel like I've been pregnant forever! Josh still thinks I'll go past my due date and have to be induced. He is really not helping!

Well, it's a beautiful Saturday afternoon...off to yard work, walking...come on out Braylon!
