So, I didn't like it at all! lol Him checking me was the WORST!....

I haven't started to dilate yet... I was hoping for some goon news Sad

I have to start going for weekly non-stress tests because I gained 10 lbs over the past month and he's worried about endmetriosis (sp?)

At first they couldn't find a heart beat which scared the crap out of me! The nurse said she was getting a heart beat, the thing just wasn't registering. I don't believe that for 1 second. I didn't hear ANYTHING at all! When she finally did get a heart beat it was in the low 130s...

So my doctor said I have AT LEAST another few weeks left. Lets hope that there is a huge change in the next week... I really wanna have this baby lol.

I go back on the 14th at 2:30.... oh joy!

Also, I forgot to mention, He said the baby is really down there and ready to come out but I just haven't started to dilate yet...

Believe me, you don't want that baby to come out too soon. Breating problems happen and I wouldn't want that to happen to you. I know that it is hard to be patient but you can be.

Good luck!

I must admit, getting checked SUCKS!! LOL! I make the most sour face when he's up in there!!

Even though your uncomfy, it's a great thing that you're not dilated yet!!!

10lbs sucks! But hell, it happens to the BEST of us!!!
