37 weeks

Well we have reached the magical 37th week where they say the baby is full term. I had a Dr. appointment on Wed. of this week. Got into the exam room and got a text from Dan saying his Dr. was sending him to the ER to check for appendicitis, needless to say I wanted to get through my appointment so that I could meet him there. My doctor said I was having a contraction my response "Really? I don't feel anything". I've been assured that I will definitely be able to feel them when they get stronger and nearer to delivery. Baby's heartbeat was 144 and everything is going good. My ankles are usually non-existent by the time I get home from work because they swell with fluid during the day. I'm supposed to have another ultrasound next Tuesday to see how big our baby boy will be. I will also get measured to make sure I can deliver him or if I need to have a C-section. Will keep you posted.

Back to Dan. We found out it is a viral infection and not appendicitis, thank goodness although he has been home and not feeling well at all. Just starting to feel a little better able to get some food down today.
