41 Weeks / Dr. Appointment


Well, we've gotten to 41 weeks and the baby is still not ready to come out. We had a Non-Stress Test this morning. This is where they hook up monitors to monitor the baby's heart beat and my contractions for about 20 minutes. They also did an ultrasound to ensure that there is enough amniotic fluid in there for her. Then they did a cervix check. The baby is in position, but she's not locked into that position and I am still not dilating yet. So, unless she decides to come out before Friday, we have another Non-Stress Test scheduled for Friday, and if all is well on Friday then they said they will induce on Monday. So Monday is the final straw if she decides to not come out before then.
So, more waddling and uncomfortableness for me for a while longer. We'll try to keep ya'll posted!
