36 week appoint., Good Appointment:)

[3xsthefun]

Well I had my 36 week appointment today. It went well. Not much happened. They checked my BP, Weight(I lost 2 pounds), I had to pee in a cup for them. And they done the StrepB test today also. They didn't check for any dialation I guess they'll do that next week.

My doctor said she thought the baby is in "head down" position now. She said they'll check more on that next week. But if the baby is still "breech" position. They'll have to do a C-section. So I guess that means they'll schedule one at my next appointment.

Well I guess that is about it until my next appointment. Its hard to believe from now until the baby is born. I'll have to go to the doctor every week. Kinda scary and exciting at the same time. Won't be long until our little girl will finally be here. And Kaitlynn will be a big sister

Thanks everyone, I will be sure to keep everyone posted. Yes I'm getting nervous,excited and all that good stuff I hope the baby decides to be head down also.

Jessyann- When is your due date? Have you picked out a name for your baby?

[chloe&tysmommy]

wow!!! Your so close.....4 more weeks woohoo

glad your appt went well and hope the baby decides to turn for you!!

[Mommieto2Girls]

Your almost there. Wow, how exciting. If you do go for a c-section you will probley have only 2 weeks to go. Are you ready with the baby's room yet? If so I wanna see some pictures. What's the theme also?

[3xsthefun]

Thanks I don't have the room completely done yet. Probably won't until the baby is here. Kaitlynn and the baby will be sharing a room. The babies side is "Blue Jean Teddy Bear" I don't have it painted or anything. We'll more then likely do that after the baby is born.

Of course the baby will sleep in her bassinet and crib in our room at first. I'm not sure when I'll start letting the baby sleep in the same room as Kaitlynn.

The room sounds cute!! My due date is november 8th..im 35 wks and 2days! We have picked out Alyssa Faith we know were having a girl . Have you picked out a name? And do you know what your having? I think you have said but i dont remember for sure.... i have a bad memory....grrr

That is a cute name that you picked. Are you excited about your little baby girl? How are you feeling?
We're having a little girl also we are going name her Maegan Marie. She will be our little M&M *LOL* I really liked the name Julianna but I couldn't get my husband to agree with the name. Well he likes Julianna but doesn't like Julie for a nickname. Oh, well.

Won't be much longer until we meet our little one's.

One thing you can do to help baby stay head down is get on your hands and knees and lean on your elbows so your butt is up in the air. Or lie on your back with your legs against the wall and prop your butt on some pillows so your pelvis is elevated. This will encourage the baby to stay head down.

Good luck, fingers crossed for normal healthy delivery!!

Thanks for the tips. I'll have to try those.

[Kirstenmumof3]

I'm so excited for you. I never made it to weekly appointments. I always went early. I hope the next 4 weeks fly by for you and you have your little baby in your arms soon!

[A&A'smommy]

awww cute name!!! yeah im really excited we are both soooo close i wonder how close together our babys births will be!? Are you ready to have a new baby? Does kaitlyn know she is going to be a big sister? When is your due date?

[3xsthefun]

Yep, We are very excited about our baby also Oh,I think we are ready. Well I know that I'm ready anyways! It is scary though thinking will have two little one's to care for now. Yes, Kaitlynn knows she is going to be a big sister. She seems to be really excited right now anyways My due date is November 2nd. I'm kinda hoping she may be here end of this month. But I doubt I went a week over with Kaitlynn. So we may end up having our babies around the sametime if this baby is a week late.

I love being pregnant! But....I'm starting to get pretty uncomfortable. So I'm pretty much ready for it to be over with. I've had a good pregnancy and I'm sure I'll miss it. But I know I can't wait to see my little bundle of joy.
