Well.... I'm off for yet another
non-stress test... 
nothing ever happens at these and I feel
like it's pointless to go but I only want
what's best for my baby. We'll see if
anything changes today...

I know how you feel, I have to have them
twice a week and so far they've detected
nothing.. I even have my own belts now,
they keep them in a lil bag with my name
on. It's not a good sign when you become
a regular!

I hated going too because nothing ever
happened and it always took forever to get
him moving (of course he would have been
moving like crazy while in the waiting
room). Then at my last one his heartbeat
dipped down to below 60 and they
immediately sent me to the hospital to
start my induction, so i'm glad I was
there.
Hang in there, girls! You're almost
there!

Well.... Like usual, nothing exciting
happened... Well, my blood pressure was
elevated to 149/91 but that's the only
thing exciting... I was there 2 hours
though b/c they couldn't get her heart
rate to spike when she moved.... Finally
the last 30 minutes I was there she
started cooperating and her heart rate
started to spike and drop. The nurse was
a little concerned about my blood
pressure, she said they'd give my doc the
report and go from there... Well, I go
back to the doctor's on monday so we'll
see what happens next! I'm 37 weeks and
like 4 days so I think my induction is
coming soon... I just kinda hope they
wait until my doctor gets back into the
office on the 20th. That's the date they
discussed before but if I go to the appt.
On monday and it's still elevated then
they're not going to wait for him to get
back into the office....
Zanny: why do you have to get the nst?

Well they originally made me have them
because my amniotic fluid levels were low,
but now it's because my baby isn't growing
properly.. She hasn't grown at all over
the last two weeks. So my fluid levels
are ok now, but the baby's growth isn't so
good *sigh* i'm having an awkward child!
Hehe. I'll have to be induced early too,
if she hasn't grown by next friday.
Good luck.. I hope everything goes ok for
you and your little girl! =)

Wow... Do they know why she isn't growing
well? How many weeks are you? When are
you due? When do you expect to be
induced? Maybe we'll be having our babies
on the same day! Hehehe  I hope everything
turns out ok for you.

They don't know why she's stopped growing,
but they said it could just be a temporary
thing.. She's due for a spurt basically!
I'm 37 weeks on monday, my due date is the
4th december. I'm going in on friday for
another scan, and if she still hasn't
grown at all i'll probably be induced the
following monday.
Well we're bound to have our babies fairly
close together whatever happens.. This
place will be full of baby girl pics! =)

Yeah. Our due dates aren't that far apart
anyways so you're thinking
the 20th? That's when I am supposed to
unless my blood pressure sky rockets and I
have to go sooner I can't wait to see
pictures and share stories

I wish the best for all of you! Look at
all the trouble you were having with .Finn
and look how perfect he is! So it goes to
show you that you never know and all that
we can do is try to think positive and I
know that it is easier said than done as I
know that you cannot help but worry. Look
at all the problems .Sandra was having
with .Caty and she turned out great too!
Zanyzany I sure hope that your baby has a
growing spurt and that they can get your
amniotic fluids up to normal! Megums, I
wish you could get you b/p down an that
everything goes well for you! Remember
that anytime that you need to vent that we
are here for you!
