3rd Trimester

Doctors appt yesterday...

Still 2 cm dilated, almost completely effaced, but Landon has moved into the -1 station now! Yippee.

On the big negative side, I gained 4 pounds in one week, which the OB chalked up to water retention because my ankles and fingers are swollen. They sent me for an NST and they had some bloodwork drawn for a liver panel because I've been having a terrible pain in my right upper abdominal area, which I just assumed was the baby kicking the crap out of me, but it turns out pain in that area could mean an enlarged liver.

Oh well, I'm honestly not that worried about it. Landon looks good. Contractions on the NST were 10 minutes apart. Hopefully he'll be here soonBig Smile

  • That is great on your progress. 
    I also had a dr's appt yesterday and then sent me for testing bc I gained 4lbs from water retention, had high BP and right upper abdominal pain.  I did not know why they were running blood tests but now I know! 

    Hopefully things move fast for you now!

  • I have pain in my upper right abdominal area too...definitely will mention it to my doctor at my weekly on Thursday.  I've heard it can also be gallbladder related.  Happy, happy, joy, joy.  Congrats on baby's progress!
