37 Week appointment

So, there's good news, and not so good news.

The good news: Baby Girl is head down, in a great position. Her heartbeat sounded great. My BP is good and my weight is 180. In a little glimmer of hope, when I mentioned that baby girl has had very limited movement yesterday and today (she is responsive to poking and proding and does move occassionally-so no worries that anything is wrong), my midwife commented that sometimes they see babies become inactive in the couple of days before labor begins. Almost like they are resting up for the big day. I like the sound of that, but I'm trying not to get my hopes up.

The not-so-good news: I'm GBS positive this time around. Boo! Really, it's no big deal, and all it means is that I have to have antibiotics during labor to protect the baby. It does throw a wrench into the whole staying at home as long as possible plan, as I now have parameters about when I need to get there in order to receive the antibiotics.

I'm a little disappointed, but oh well. Really, if that's the worst thing that's happened, then I think we're doing just fine.

Picture coming soon.
