I had my 37 week appointment this morning, and everything is perfect. My blood pressure was down to a very acceptable 138/70. Baby seems to have undropped, so to speak, and because of that I’m now measuring two weeks ahead. She’s still head down, but her head is kind of angled a little bit. My midwife isn’t concerned about it though. She did a fetal weight estimate, and thinks baby girl is between 6.5 and 7 pounds now, so pretty much right on target for her gestational age. That makes me feel a lot better, I was afraid of a monster baby. Haha. We did my GBS swab, and should have the results back in a few days. I’ve also lost 3 pounds since last week, but she’s not worried about that either. She thinks it has something to do with the medication I’m on. Plus, I’ve always heard that a little weight loss at the end of pregnancy is normal. She doesn’t think we’ll be having a baby this weekend, but she didn’t extend her prediction beyond that.

Anyway, it’s just a waiting game now. Baby can come any time she wants. I just wish I knew when that was. LOL.

Oh yeah, and I did everything yesterday that I said I was going to do. I went to the grocery store and walked around there for an hour, did 3 loads of laundry, and capped off the day with sex. Not great sex, at least not for me, because the muscles in my hips kept spasming and my pelvis was in agony afterward, but it was nice to be intimate with the hubby for a little while. And now I’m off to eat some lunch, and do a whole crap load of baby laundry and clean out the fridge and maybe vacuum. Yup, definitely nesting.
