Doctor Appointment- 38w, 1d

Well, my appointment was a little disappointing! Everything is still going well and for that I am EXTREMELY grateful, but he said that "she is still a little high and my cervix is softening". Which is funny b/c I follow a girl online who is due around the same time as me just had the exact same thing happen to her. One week they say the baby is really low and the next she's a "little high". They can move, but usually stay low when they are low. Uhhh! And he said that he thinks I'll have her pretty close to my due date, but probably a couple of days before! Not really what I wanted to hear, but not the worst thing! I'm still not dilated, but he said again that once I do start to dilate, I'll probably go really fast. At the end of my visit he said "I'll see you in a week, but if I see you sooner, it's all the better!". One more appointment won't kill me, but I ABSOLUTELY don't want 2 more!

I wish I could walk more and get things moving along, but I can't, it ends up being WAY too painful. I'm still paying for the couple mile bike ride I went on a week and a half ago and anytime I go grocery shopping or do too much cleaning (which is pretty much daily)!

  1. That happened with Landen too. I went into L&D because he was so low it felt like his head was seriously between my legs and they said he just dropped, and then the next week he was up as high as ever and stayed there until i had him. These pesky babies and their changing positions!! lol

  3. Oh I remember that pain. I was nesting so bad, and every night I felt compelled to clean all the floors incase I went into labor overnight and it KILLED me! I would be hobbling around in pain trying to push the vacuum and on my hands and knees scrubbing tiles. You will be so happy when all that pain is gone and you can move freely and comforatably again!

  4. Yep, I do the SAME thing, lol! I will clean my house from top to bottom and be in the most EXCRUTIATING pain, but I just feel the need to have it done!
