37 Weeks (21 Days To Go)

Just left my weekly OB appointment and BPP ultrasound.  Chance scored and 8/8 on the BPP again today.  Remember, they check amniotic fluid levels in each quadrant, he has to move, he has to breathe for 30 seconds in 30 minutes, and he has to have a good heart rate.  Get one point if any of these things is not as it should be.  2 points if he does all these things.  So he got 8/8, which is 2 points for each thing.  He was in a little bit of a food coma and didn't want to move, so he got "buzzed".  They took a little probe that makes noise and put it on my belly.  He moved after that!! LOL
Appt went fine.  I got checked.  Cervix is still hard and not dilated.  Chance is still high, but his head is low in my pelvis.  He needs to drop more.
The doc decided to go ahead and schedule the induction at 39 weeks.  So I will go into the hospital the evening of June 7th, and hopefully have a baby June 8th; unless Sir Chance decides to come on his own before.
I've had some swelling in my feet and ankles the past two days.  Doc isn't concerned.  He says its storing fluids for later; ones needed after delivery.  I went and got my blood work done, and they want a 24 hour urine sample.  I assume because there was a little bit of blood in my urine sample this time.  However, I had just gotten waxed and had a little bleeding from the waxing.  I showed them my undies to prove this, but they are getting it anyway to be sure.
My BP was the lowest it's been in weeks, so they aren't concerned about pre-eclampsia.
Question brought up last week by the other doc was stripping membranes.  I asked my doc if he does this.  He adamantly said NO!! Not only does it hurt, it doesn't really do anything to help labor.  What they do is once you are dilated, they stick their finger up in the uterus through the cervix and run it around the inside of the cervix to "strip" the amniotic sac away from the cervix and it's opening.  Yeah....that doesn't sound pleasant.  No thanks.  Especially when it doesn't do anything to help speed labor along.  It won't put me into labor at all.  Yeah. I'll pass.  Glad my doc doesn't do it anymore.
I will be camping this weekend.  Only rules I was given was no riding four wheelers and no dairy.  Hard to keep dairy cold in ice chests camping.  No four wheeler because of chance of abruption.  Pretty sure I can get around our ranch anyway.  Fishing.  Having a good time.
Maybe I'll go into labor..........
