Under doctor's orders.
My 38th week checkup went well. I am finally starting to efface, so that is good news. (Means that the cervix is softening, IE ripening. After effacement is dilation.) I have also lost two pounds since the 36th week checkup. And with only gaining 14 pounds so far with the pregnancy is not entirely a great thing (not bad, just not great) The baby's heart rate was down to 136 from 150 though, but that is nothing to worry about. Another note though is that she still has not dropped.
So, to fix the baby still being high, the weight loss, and to further along effacement and push me towards labor, the Midwife gave me three orders; Walk, eat, and have lots of sex. Those were her direct orders. I love my little German Midwife. She is amazing.
