31 wk doc appt

Everything is a-ok. Uterus is measuring right around 31 cm. Doc estimates that the baby is around 3-3.5 lbs. He felt around and I assume that she is still head down...otherwise I'm sure he would have mentioned it. BP is great at 120/80....its even better when I take it at home. I only gained 2.5 lbs (in 3 weeks) according to their scale which I am very happy with. The scale I regularly weigh myself on has me at 2 lbs heavier. I'll go by the doc's scale and say that the small difference in weight is due to the "enlightening" I've had in the past 24 hours. It has been quite the relief ;)

I asked about their policy on induction past the due date, and was told that if both mother and baby are healthy and are not having any issues, they'll induce between 41 and 42 weeks. This baby has always been an overachiever so I'm sure she'll make her entrance on time, if not a bit early (just like her mom :)). Plus, since she's always measured a little bit ahead, they'll monitor me a little more closely once I get closer to the end.

All in all, a good appt....now off to devour more of my Chicken Pad Thai!
