ARGH this child is gonna be the death of me!

The entire pregnancy I've had something wrong if it wasn't one thing it was another. I got pulled out of work back in September due to contractions and PTL. Been on bedrest since before Thanksgiving. Started insulin at 15 weeks cause my normal steady fasting rates weren't good enough for pregnancy even though they've stayed unchanged the entire time and my blood sugars are amazing all the time and I don't use their diet.

They told me with my blood pressure issues I'd be lucky if I made it to 35 weeks well here we are 35 weeks and the blood pressure issues have completely resolved themselves they have no clue what happened but I went from having some insanely dangerous readings to normal or even in the lower end. Which I'm thankful for of course but its just puzzling what changed. I've gone from near constant contractions to not a thing not even a BH. Baby has been head down for weeks this weekend though she apparently decided it was time for a change she is now breech and measuring 6 weeks ahead!!!!!!!!! I have a growth scan on Monday but my OB said as far as he is concerned she can just stay in till 39 weeks like we planned even if she is gonna be like a 12lb baby!!!!!!!!!!

ACK!!!!!!!!!!!!! Thanks for letting me vent.

Oh my what a roller coaster. That stinks that she turned breech, but if she still had enough room to turn this past weekend, there's still a good chance that she'll turn again. I can't believe that you're measuring 41 weeks and your LO is still flipping around in there!! That's great your BP is under control now. Maybe you'll get to experience an uneventful last few weeks of pregnancy before she makes her grand entrance!! Sounds like you deserve a few calm weeks!
