36 weeks appt. My March baby may be a February one!
I had my 36 weeks appt. today. Baby looks good, estimated at 6 lbs 8 oz. no issues with the baby from the NST and BPP. I am contracting though, and I didn't even know it! I assumed it was the baby moving when I got that long dull pain in the v-jay area.
However, I've been on meds to control my pregnancy-induced hypertension since 20 weeks. And even on the highest dose now, my BP has been hovering around 150/100 Doc drew blood today and I will have the results tomorrow. They are checking my liver function, which may indicate early signs of pre-eclampsia. I will get those results tomorrow. My OB said if anything points to it being a trend of my BP going up, he will take the baby now.... probably not induce since I've had a prior c/s.
My sisters are throwing me a small shower on Saturday. Not sure I will make it to then... I go back Friday for another appt. I will update then!

That is really exciting!
I had preclampsia with DS and I was induced as well. My blood pressure got to 210/170.
Good Luck you will do fine!

Wow! I am sure mine would be that high if I wasn't on the meds already. I hate the waiting game! I have to see how the blood work comes back and then possibly wait until Friday to see....
But it's all very exciting knowing an end is near. My hospital bag is packed.
