So we are back from the OB's office for the 39 week appointment. Let me start by saying that the little sore throat I started getting yesterday progressed overnight and now I sound like a frog. My throat is itchy and scratchy so I've been coughing and sneezing. I got about 2 hours of sleep last night because of the coughing... I took some Tyle.nol Cold N Sinus before going to bed.
Now here are the stats:
Weight: +2 lbs from last week
BP: 150/90, after resting 128/86
Belly: 39 1/2 cm
Baby HB: 148
Dilation: still 2 cm, same as last week
Cervix: still soft but closed, same as last week
She was a little concerned about the high BP, but said that the Tyle.nol contains Suda.fed and that can raise your BP so it could be nothing. However, to be on the safe side, I am starting another 24 urine collection immediately. I will take it to the lab at the hospital tomorrow at 5 PM. I will have my BP checked there and wait for the urine test. If it comes back ok (which the other 2 I have done during this pregnancy always have been) then I go home and wait for Peanut to come on his own. If it is abnormal, then I will be admitted to the hospital and they will start an induction Friday morning.
So I could have a baby by the weekend!

5 nice things to say...:
Here's hoping everything is normal and that Peanut can come on his/her own. But hey, I'm sure you're ready to get things moving!
Good luck!
Take good care, hope your BP and Urine results are good.
Yay! You are getting so close! Hopefully the cough and sore throat go away. I can't wait to find out if its a boy or girl!
Thanks for the award too!
So, it could be an exciting weekend! I guess I will be checking in every so often...Wishing you luck!
I sure hope all is well with your BP and 24 hour urine. I'm so excited for you because soon you will get to meet your sweet peanut!
