Current weight/ Total Weight: 160lbs at dr but 157lbs at home.
Exercise: JM BMBF. I tried RI30 Wk2 and I couldn't do most of the moves because there is a lot of planks & abs done on my back.
Sleep: ok. As good as I can with how many times I have to pee in the night & being uncomfortable. I have been sleeping with a rolled up blanket behind my back and my body pillow between my knees.
Movement: Moving all the time. His feet are always on my right side kicking.
Best moment this week: 37wk+4 day appointment went well. Baby's heart rate was around140. Dr. Harward told me that with his other patients he usually tells them to wait until contractions are 3-5mins apart for 2 hours. With me I should go in when they are 5-10 mins apart for 1 hour or if I feel like I things are happening to just go in. They lost my chart... found it right as I was leaving. Dr. Harward will be in the office on the 14th but not the 15th. He says we will just plan on inducing the 15th which is in 10 days! I asked about mobility when being induced, he says it will be limited but I will be able to get out of bed and use the birthing ball etc. This Dr. never measures my fundal measurements (my pelvic bone to the top of my uterus) so I have not idea what I am measuring. I kinda feel like Dr. Firth was better at those kind of things, feeling to see what baby's position is. I will have to ask Dr. Harward next week. He doesn't usually check the cervix every week so I just didn't have him check. He will defiantly check it next week and also strip my membranes. I doubt that will really do anything but here is to hoping. Hoping to be dilated to at least a 3 and effaced. I was dilated to 1cm but i was still thick & high last week.
