at the doctor: i have been going every week since week 30 due to high blood pressure and contractions i have also been getting NST(non-stress test) and BPP(biophysical profile) every week too... It takes up a whole day so at least i can get out of the house... bed rest is driving me insane!!! Everything in this house is spotless now!

The doctor checked my blood pressure and it was still high even though i am taking meds for it... so he increased the dosage... then he told me that we will probably induce me sometime next week. After my appt i went for my NST and the technician had to buzz my belly three times to get her to move... she said that would just barely get my baby to pass... so i got sent downstairs for my BPP and the baby only scored 6/8 pts. the reason why was for little amount of movement... then i had to go back upstairs to the NST room and she told me that i had to come in on thursday the 27th to do another NST... The real shocker thru the whole thing was when the ultrasound tech said how bout we try to get some measurements while we are waiting for the baby to move... The head and abdomen was measuring 41 weeks! Legs measured 38 weeks! And that day i was 36 weeks ... the tech told me that the baby was measuring 8 pounds 14 ounces!!!! she said that it would be within a pound either way... so anywhere from 7 pounds 14ounces to 9 pounds 14 ounces.. So hopefully next week i am induced he said that monday the 31st we're going to set our induction date... i have been measuring big my whole pregnancy... also the dr. told me there is no way he wil let me go to my due date

3/28/08 went to dr. and he said that we are going to induce at 38 weeks... Had another ultrasound done too and she is still measuring big... 8lbs 14oz +/- 15 ounces.... so im just waiting til then...large and uncomfortable...
