33 week appointment

I went in today for my weekly OB appointment! I lost 1 pound - and trust me that makes me happy...for two weeks I was gaining WAY too much at a time! My blood pressure was good, I was measuring 36 cm on my fundal height (which is 3 weeks ahead...what happened to 2 weeks ahead?). Baby's heartbeat was 140-150's. I had the fetal fibronectin test drawn again, but won't get the results until tomorrow since my appointment was late in the afternoon. I only have to get that test drawn one more time because she said she is not going to worry if I go into labor at 35 weeks. She also checked my cervix...that was not as great of news as everything else. I have dilated more - she said I am now 3 cm dilated (I was barely a 2 last week) and my cervix has softened even more. Baby has not engaged in the pelvis and she doesn't even think the baby's head was down (she was caddy cornered...I dont' know if this is a good thing or bad thing - hopefully that means she is not ready yet and will turn when she is. I am hoping that I don't go into labor though before her head comes down!). My cervix is still high which is good. She said I could still work, but I need to come home and do nothing else for the night - she said pretty much be a slug! Yikes that is going to be hard to do with a 23 month old running around (I am not quite ready to call her 2 - she still has 3 weeks left to be considered 1).

Speaking of Isabella - she is getting SOOO big! Sam and I measured her yesterday because we were saying she looked so much taller. She is now about 35 inches on our estimate!! That means she is almost 3 feet tall!! She is such a big girl!! Her vocabulary is expanding every day - she is saying a lot of 2 word sentences (granted most of them her daddy and I can understand but other people probably can't). She is copying a lot of things we say and do which is super cute but it also makes me really watch myself! My little girl is all grown up! I just pray the little peanut choses a time to show up that doesn't interfere with Isabella's 2 year birthday!! I want to be able to really make Isabella feel special this year! Well, that is it for now!
