39 Week Doc Appointment

Well Thursday we went to the doctor and of course there was very little change: I was dilated to a centimeter and he is still high, his heart rate was good, I didn't gain any weight (WOO HOO!) and my blood pressure was perfect (112/72). I didn't see Dr. Phillips because she was out of town but the doctor I did see said that she (and probably Dr. Phillips also) would not induce at that point because it would most likely lead to lots of pain and result in a c-section which they would like to avoid at all costs! That is something that I am so thankful for with these doctors is that they are very uninclined (if that is a word) to cut if they don't ABSOLUTELY HAVE TO (i.e. baby in stress). So, I see Dr. Phillips on Monday and if he hasn't come I am hoping I can convince her that we should set a date so I can quit being paranoid about all the unknowns and just meet our sweet baby boy! But I know that Dr. Phillips will be looking out for our best interest and if she feels that I should give it more time, then I will grit my teeth and gladly try. But overall, Thad and I had a great afternoon and I actually got a new dishwasher and haircut out of the deal! But anyway that is about it. I will post again after the visit on Monday and hopefully I will be able to tell you all when we will be meeting Mr. Jack Brannon. Other than that, I am just trying to "relax" and just enjoy Berkley Tate as much as possible! Hope everyone has a wonderful weekend and we will keep you posted!
