NST/BPP and OB appt today-- eek!

So I have weekly NST and BPP's because of gestational diabetes and they're usually fine.  Piper always likes things done on her terms which is sometimes frustrating but she passes both each week and did again today.  I have my next growth scan on the 4th so I'm looking forward to seeing how big she is then.

Today was also my OB appointment and I don't know why but I'm freaking out (in a good way) now.  My OB told me that even with well controlled gestational diabetes they generally don't let women go past 39 weeks.  So depending on her size we might be meeting Piper sooner than later and at the LATEST in 5 weeks.  I knew this was a possibility but I guess I thought that if I was controlling the GD well and her size was ok they'd let me go till my body was ready to evict her.  Having a concrete she will be out by this date has me all sorts of frazzled!  I'm so excited:)  DH told me I need to pack our hospital bag asap! 

I guess I can't believe we're already this close.  I mean she could be here in as soon as 3 weeks but I've been thinking halloween for so long that realizing it could be sooner has me all giddy inside:P

 I really should start washing her clothes and pack the hospital bag but those stupid IF fears have me hesitant to do it.  I know everything looks great and I have weekly confirmation at this point but I'm so scared something will go wrong and I'll have packed a bag for nothing and washed clothes that could be returned:(  I hate feeling like that but I still do sometimes.  Gonna have to get over it though!

 Sorry this got so long!

    its surreal isnt it?? its a darn shame what IF has done to us. I was the same way until my Dr asked me 2 weeks ago if I had packed my bags. I hadn't, I was hesitant but finally when I realized I could go at any time now.

    Glad to hear LO is right on track. You may be meeting her soon!!

    I am procrastinating doing things too, and have done so this whole pregnancy. I will probably be induced at 39 weeks too (unless he comes before). It's beyond surreal!
