Baby update

I had my 38 week appointment today. I still don’t have my voice back. Started antibiotics on Tuesday. My sugar was a bit high today so they asked me what I had for lunch. Apparently a vanilla latte and 2 Montreal bagels with cream cheese followed by sucrets just before peeing in a cup will give you high sugar ;) The doctor wasn’t worried about it though. I lost 0.3lbs this week and the trainee doctor thought I was only 36cms (I think not).

So the OB says to me that the fresh blood is arriving tomorrow (see weird blood issue explained in earlier post) and so he think they should induce me at the beginning of the week, to which I utterred a whispered exclamation of WHAT!? ARE YOU SERIOUS!?? WHAT!?? and told him I wasn’t really ready for that yet. He said ok, no problem… we can wait until after your next appointment, do you think you’ll be ready then? *L* And I said unlikely, but more ready. ;) I at least want to get my voice back before I go into labour! It’s a little scary not being able to verbalize LOUDLY if I am in need of something!

He would like to have me deliver in a controlled environment during the day with the weird blood and all.
So… my next appointment was scheduled for March 4th at 3pm. I am guessing I will be scheduled to induce early hours of the following day? Or maybe the Monday after?

So yeah, freaking out a little right now … so much to get ready!!! :) Mostly been lazing about this week trying to get better, but I’m going to have to start making those curtains soon!
