Just when you think you are safe to go back to the perinatologist's office...
BP: 122/77
Fluids: 17 (-3 from Friday, but still excellent)
Baby's position: head down (fantastic)
Heart rate: 133-140 (not so good)
Uterine activity: too many to count (boom, crash)
Yes, you read that correctly. The last two...heart rate and uterine activity = epic fail. Baby B got the buzzer/taser today, and still didn't wake up. They brought out the apple juice, which helped, but if Baby B hadn't passed the ultrasound, I'm not sure where we'd be right now. Apparently, my contraction pattern was both regular and consistent as well. This means me meds were upped, yet again, to every four hours. I'm not sure if his heart rate responsiveness correlates to the contraction pattern, but whatever it means, it added up to a very long morning.
The doctor ordered yet another Ffn test, which happily came back negative. Another cervical check (actually, two, since one nurse was still learning and asked me if I consented to "let her practice." Um, ow. But I guess we all have to start somewhere) and no dilation yet. Whew.
We're really coming down to the wire here...34w2d, I just need to get through a few more weeks before we will consider this baby coming into the world to join us. It sounds like he might have other ideas, though.
The big ultrasound is this Thursday, so keep thinking those boring, womb-centered thoughts. We can't wait to meet Baby B...just, not now. Think August 15th. At the very earliest.

Being the winner of a multi-million-dollar lottery certainly is a life-changing event for almost every single lottery winner. My name is Mavis Wanczyk from Chicopee, Massachusetts and I want to use this medium to tell you how I became the famous Powerball lottery winner of $758 million (£591m). I know many people would wonder how I had won the lottery. Would you believe me if I told you that I did it with spell casting? I met this famous spell caster known as Doctor Odunga and he was the one who did it for me. As shocking as it was to me, my famous comment to the press was “ I’m going to go and hide in my bed.” Never did I believe that Dr. Odunga would make me wealthy overnight. If you want to have your chance of winning and becoming very wealthy just like me, contact Chief Dr. Odunga at Email: [email protected] and WHATS-APP HIM at +2348167159012 and you will be lucky. Thanks for reading and hope to see you at the top Leave a Reply. |

Think of this as the epilogue to Bridget Jones' story. Well, mostly. Bridget marries the handsome lawyer, starts a blog while on bedrest, and decides marathon running sounds like fun. Bridget goes through a divorce but keeps running. Hilarity ensues. Archives
