Crib with his name over it.
I went to the doctor on Monday! I am now in my 37th week of pregnancy, so I am off bed rest, and the doctors said that if labor started, they wouldn't do anything to stop it. I had a little scare though. My blood pressure went up a little bit from last week, and my doctor thought I looked a little more swollen/ puffy than the last time she saw me. So, she had me get blood taken to see if I may have preeclampsia, which if I do at this stage of my pregnancy, I am pretty sure they're just going to be putting me in the hospital and inducing the labor. She also said I am measuring HUGE and she ordered an ultrasound two weeks away to measure the size of the baby. Really, I kind of think I am measuring huge because maybe I have a small torso. I have a doctor's appointment tomorrow to follow up on the preeclampsia thing. Hopefully, all will be well.
I am so ready for Evan, and I am just getting excited to meet him now! I am 2 cm dilated still, which my doctor said that some women can stay dilated that long for about a month or so. But, I've also been having contractions, not consistent or heavy at all, just enough to make me feel uncomfortable. We'll see what excitement this next week brings for us!
