35 weeks!!

Woooo Hoooo!
We made it to 35 weeks, the last week in month 8!!! Considering that just 2 weeks ago we were having concerns that Nyla would be here by now, I am so happy to say that she is still staying put!

We went to the doctors appointment yesterday, and Nyla still looks absolutely perfect on the monitors. Me... eh... my BP was a little high (170/90) so they had me hang for a few hours and let me go home and back to bedrest when it hit 138/90.

I had a major happy day though, I reached a GREAT compromise with my doctors! They wanted to induce me next week (January 27th) and I had a lot of concerns about her still being pre-term. The doctors and I came to the agreement that unless my BP jumps up to a point where it is high and sustained (not just a random emotional spike) I can sit and bake this baby until AT LEAST 38 weeks!!!

Now don't get me wrong, I am over bedrest, being uncomfortable, all that, but to know that she can stay in there until she is ready seems to make it all better!!!

Tomorrow we have another ultrasound, and a follow up with the doctors to check my bloodwork and BP levels. Basically from now on I am living part time in bed and part time at my doctors office.

PS...... the produce this week is still a honeydew, just a fatter one...
