36 Week Appointment Update

4 weeks left until Sophia is due! (Which, of course, means anywhere between 2 and 6 weeks).

We had our final Maternal-Fetal growth ultrasound. In an unexpected turn of events, our "little" girl now weighs in at an approximated 6 lbs, 6 oz! I don't know what percentile that is, but it means she would be "average" for 37.5 weeks gestation. We thought we were going to have a little peanut, and we just might end up with a big girl. It all depends on when I go into labor, really. The waiting game begins.

After that, we had our appointment over across the way with our normal caregiver. We've now joined the "Weeklies Club," meaning we've begun our weekly appointments. We went over our birthplan, and I got a culture taken to see if I test positive for Group B Strep. Everyone please pray that it comes back negative, because I really don't want to have to show up early on in labor to get hooked up to an IV to receive antibiotics. I'll let you all know the results once we get them back. I also got checked for dilation, and there's nothing to speak of as yet. Of course, that's no indication of when I'll go into labor or how fast it will progress, but just thought I'd share the news.

Love to all!
