36 Weeks
And counting. I had my 36 week appointment today and everything is pretty much the same. The non-stress test showed the baby doing well and me having some very intense contractions. I've "made progress" and we'll leave it at that as far as the dirty details go. Dr. D. estimates she probably weighs around 8lbs by now. We haven't started talking induction or anything just yet. I really want to go into labor on my own this time, but I also don't want to risk a Cesarean that could have been avoided by induction. We'll see next week. My diabetes is "under control" and if anything my blood sugar is more often low than high. This is good news. I have strep b so I will have to have IV antibiotics during labor, no biggee. We just want a healthy baby. Good luck all you Mama's out there, Stephi and Erika especially. We are all just playing the waiting game. And thanks again to my husband for being so supportive while I am SO cranky.

Carrie, you're so sweet! We are really almost there! I am guessing for your poll that if you don't induce, you'll go to 40 weeks (40 weeks and a few days)- and that if you do induce, you'll do it at 39 weeks. So, I don't know if I should put 39 or 40.
That's great that you have progress. No progress here! Any ideas on how to move that along?
You are getting so close- and don't worry about being cranky- I am super duper duper cranky, too...I think it goes with the last month of pregnancy carrying a giant baby!
