Sorry no picture yet. I'm going to try to do one sometime in this next week. :)
However, I had my dr appt today and wanted to fill you in. I mentioned the crazy BH I had been having earlier in the week. He said "not much you can do about those" and told me to take some tylenol. What??!!?? Um....how about no!
I forced a conversation about labour/delivery because he hadn't brought that up yet (who knows how long that would have taken left to him) because there were a few things I wanted to tell him about my expectations. I was shocked to discover that he didn't even know that this wasn't my first pregnancy. Don't doctors read the files of their patients?? I told dh that I didn't expect him to remember all the details of my previous pregnancies or labours, but for goodness sake! He should at least be in tune enough to know that this is my 3rd pregnancy!!! Grrrr....when I mentioned that I wanted to talk about labour/delivery he started talking me through everything as if I had never heard/experienced any of this before. Halfway through he must have picked up something in my tone of voice because he finally said "is this not your first pregnancy?" Um....NO! sigh....I miss my midwife. And my doctor that I had before that. I'm going to have to start researching if there are any other docs I can see after this baby is born because I don't want to stay with this one.
On a more positive note, my blood pressure and baby's heart rate are both fine. I am measuring 35 cm at 33 weeks. I've never measured big before. Does that mean this babe might come early? Or does it just mean that this is my third pregnancy and my belly is all stretched out? lol.
Still experiencing more BH than last week, but nothing like at the start of this week, so that is good. Now I just have to get caught up on housework that I neglected when I was trying to rest and make the BH go away. lol. And try not to push too hard so they don't come back.
That ended up being more of an update than I expected. lol. Oh well - all is well and that is what matters most.
