36 Week Appointment
Sep. 25th, 2002 07:14 amI had my appointment last night.
Blood Pressure 110/74
Weight 176 + 1 lb
I had the Group B Strep test. It was not a big deal, I was expecting more like a pap smear, it was just a little Q-tip, not painful or anything.
I had her check my stomach to see which way the baby is. She thinks his butt is up and the head down. She didn't say I'd dropped, but at least he's pointing the right way.
My husband asked me later if the baby feels weird upside down (he didn't come with me, but I was telling him about the appointment) I said I don't know.
I didn't have any measurements taken, nor an internal.
The doctor said it was up to me as to how long I keep working. As much as I don't want to work, with a limited maternity leave it is financially better for me to stay off disability as long as possible. I can probably work from home before I have to stop anyway. (Hopefully, I won't have to be on any conference calls where I can't hear...we have the worst phone system.)
Next appointment Monday. I got asked which doctor I hadn't seen in a while (they like to rotate me through all 4 doctors). I asked for and got my favorite one (she was my pre-pregnancy GYN, once I go back to routine care - I'll just see her!)
