Went to the nurses today. Weight is WAAAAAAAAAY up. She took my BP three times because the first 2 times it was also elevated.. by the third time it was more acceptable. She didn't seem concerned about the weight or BP. Urine showed nothing to be worried about.
Then on to the non-stress test. It took her almost 10 minutes to find the baby's heartbeat. Then I sat for 30 minutes while one doppler monitored the baby's heart beats and a second monitored any contractions.
I had a few contractions but the monitor says they're not 'labor'.. Sigh.
NS was a pure angel the whole time... Thank you!!
The nurse then took the readout to the OB and she said the OB says everything is fine. I then asked her 'What now?'... she got this confused look on her face... I was like.. "Look, tomorrow is my official due date. Do I need to make another appointment for this or what?"
I mean seriously... there have been no indications that this baby is ready to be born any time soon and yes, I realize that I can go from 0-10 in an hour with no signs beforehand, but come ON! Her reaction was like... "Do you expect to still be pregnant?"
She suggested I make an appointment with the OB for next week. So I did. Not sure if I should also make an appointment to see the nurses to make sure my urine is free of glucose and protein...
Later today I have an appointment to see the GP for this cold.
I think my body forgot what to do at the end of a pregnancy...
