Week 37

A brief update on our appointment today. My blood pressure was 130/80, I'm hoping it doesn't start getting higher each week! Baby's heartrate was 140 again, and the blood test said that my iron pills are working, so I just need to keep taking them. My belly is measuring about 36 cm and Dr. Mark said I haven't dialated yet, although my cervix is softening a little. He said baby's head is in the downward position so it's on the right track.

We also went to the Hurst Police Department and got our car seat installed, so that is all set to go. This weekend we are planning on packing our hospital bag, in case baby decides it's show time! I'm still thinking we have some time, even though Dr. Mark said, "see you next week if not before!" I laughed because I think baby is staying put for awhile, just liking his/her home too much right now!

We'll keep you updated, but all is calm for the moment! :-) Love, Matt & Ann
