We made it to 35 weeks!
Currently I am 35w5d so I assume we will make it to 36 weeks as well, not sure how far from there until we will meet our second son though! Monday night I was getting contractions every 3-6 minutes and after I had taken the procardia they only spaced out to 10-15 minutes instead of going away. So we called the on-call DR (who was not from our practice) and he said if I came in he wouldn't stop labor, so just do what I was doing at home. He wasn't super pleasant and made rude jokes about my DR, so I am really glad we didn't have to go in that night. I am so so thankful for our wonderful OBGYN office - they are fabulous! The best plan would to be go into labor at night and deliver during the day when my DR is working. (Funny to plan such a thing, right?) But that's how much I love my DR.
Tuesday morning we called my DR and they told us to come in and get checked- contractions were 4-7 minutes apart but I was only dilated to 1, and they would have sent us to L&D for some fluids, but we've been down this road before- so we got to come home. They did want us to come back that afternoon and have the u/s done that should have been today. Just incase he decided to come this early we would know his size. (Eli got stuck, and talk of csec if we make it as far as we did with Eli is very possible!)
I loved seeing him again, though everything is much more squished and it was hard to get a good look! One of his feet and hands is down by the head, and the other set is up at the ribs- totally uncomfortable if you ask me!
Today I got checked again and I am 2CM dilated. Contractions have been heavier tonight but I assume that's because he checked me, never a fun process!
My official guess for the date he will arrive is December 27th! I am also guessing he will be 8 pounds 5 ounces... and he will need NO NICU TIME! He will be perfectly healthy. Praying!
