Dr. Appointment Update

So we got to see Dr. A today. He is such a nice man, and worth every minute of my 1.5 hr wait.
He did another ultrasound today (probably my last until 39 -40weeks). Baby is measuring great. A little over 7lbs already so he said 8.5 to 9lb baby is almost certain.

I like the idea of a bigger baby so this is a good thing. Belli was 8 lbs so that it not too far off. She nursed well, slept well, and was easier for me to carry...small babies are so intimidating.

I also told him that I have been cramping a lot at night (pretty painful, but no contractions with the pain). He said, well dear "it's because this baby is as low as it can be before just falling out" He did also say that my cervix still looked closed per the ultrasound. Dr. A is not a huge believer in checking effacement or dilation at this point since one can dilate to 10 or efface to 100% in hours.

Looks like I still have a few weeks left. At this point, its just mind over matter. It is getting harder everyday and I am getting more and more sensitive/emotional. I can almost handle the weight and pain, but the emotional part is really hard for me. I am not used to being this sensitive and everything lately is hurting my feelings.

Until next week...
