30 weeks 2 days Well my little one, everything is going beautifully according to my OB. Low BP, your heart is going along like a little steam train, fundal height is on dates, weight is good, you were lying with your head down, back to my left (left occipito anterior?) which is perfect! The whole appointment was reassurring for both your Dad and I, we had a bit of a chat with the doc about my grumpiness and mood swings and we’re feeling a bit better about it all. I think that it’s probably just normal reactions to the big changes ahead..and a lot of sookiness on your Mum’s part about Daddy being away all week in Canberra (and having a meeting in Canberra on Feb 10…but we shall leave that alone for now). OK…time to stop talking to my bump and get back to normal diary writing LOL. My OB has recommended that I start taking Raspberry leaf tablets to ripen my cervix and tone my uterus…when I told him that I was still not very impressed with any of the options for getting bubs out he laughed! Anyway…he will be on holidays from Feb 19, and gave us info on his locum, but said that it was unlikely that i would go over his nominated due date of Feb 17. Partly because of the raspberry leaf, and also because he encourages couples to go the shag and make good use of the prostoglandins in semen. DH must have tuned out, because I had to reiterate this again later and he found it hilarious. I mean, we found our weekend shag funny enough as it was, we can’t even begin to imagine what it will be like at 40 weeks LOL. I also pointed out to the OB that I was unlikely to go overdue because he had tacked 5 days on to what I still hold is my true due date (feb 12) and he laughed and said that most people didn’t realise he did that. So, all in all a good appointment. I think I might go and grab an early dinner and shower before settling down to watch the box. Hope this will help me sleep..because i would like to keep my better mood after all the seesawing I have done lately. Love you my little one…can’t wait to meet you even though I really wish the stork delivered you ;)
