At 38 weeks 2 days:
Blood pressure: 110/60
Fundal height: 39
Weight gain: +2, +27 overall
PD's heartbeat found right away. He's high in the uterus. Internals today, and I called it right: no progress. Cervix not showing any signs of delivering a baby any time soon. Cervix is closed and "maybe a little soft."
My being sickly is most likely viral he said, but he offered a z-pak which I declined. He said to call if I am not feeling better in a day or two.
Today was my last prenatal appointment, unless there's a big change and I am feeling contractions before the scheduled cesarean or if I change my mind about having a cesarean. Wow. We are that close.
Labor and delivery will be expecting me next week a few days prior to the cesearan to do bloodwork.
Next up: Delivery of PD (aka Tummy Brother) on Thursday, June 23, 10am. Arrive at hospital at 8am. Fast after midnight the night before....no coffee.
