36 Week Update..

So, as of today I am 36 weeks.  I'm officially off of bed rest, but the doctor wrote a note for me to go back to work on Monday. 

As of this morning I am officially 2 cm, as excited I was to hear this was as disappointed as I was to hear the following statement:  You can go in 4 hrs, 4 days, or 4 weeks.  The good news following that was that he felt I was making good progress and will be able to more than likely avoid an induction. 

They feel that the baby is a good size, and would be safe for him to be born anytime after now.  Apparently there is a bigger difference in a 35 week baby as compared to a 36 week baby.  Per the doctor, I can go back to normal activity....what I really wanted to do was finish getting a few things that I feel I will NEED and don't have.....but my car is at the dealership today, therefore, I am homebound still!

Re: 36 Week Update..

  • Awesome!! I'm so glad you're off bed rest, what a PITA!!

    Congrats on 2cm.... I was at zero when I went on Monday and that was a little disappointing.  Glad the baby is at a good size and will be ready any time. Your little Tofurkey is almost ready to come out of the oven!!!
