We had our 37 1/2 week doctors appointment this past Thursday. We ended up waiting for an hour and a half for one of the doctors and finally being seen by the nurse practitioner. I guess there were lots of emergency deliveries that day so they were very behind. Once we were finally back in the room Owen must have been annoyed because he would NOT let his heartbeat be found! He was hiding and flipping around like crazy but he finally stopped and we found out that he was at 120. The doctor said that it's totally normal that his heartbeat has slowed so much from previous appointments because he's getting ready for birth.
Speaking of getting ready for birth...I'm 1/2 a centimeter dialated! This may not sound like much but it's better than nothing and has really pulled me through this week! We also finished the nursery...except for the rocking chair that's still on Daddy's to do list for the weekend.
We have another appointment on Thursday and are hoping for a lot more dialation!
