I actually meant 1 week |

I had an NST on Monday, as usual. I apparently had one contraction that I did not feel. And Snowflake had one incidence where his heart rate dropped to 110. I was on the monitor longer than usual to see if it was an isolated event, and it seems like it was. I saw Dr. Johnson right after who looked at the tracings from the NST and he said everything looked good and not to worry. This whole time he said he wanted to do the amnio at 36 weeks and deliver. I automatically thought that we do the amnio and 36 weeks and deliver at 37. What actually happens is, you deliver the day after the amnio. The plan never really changed, just my understanding of it. We set up an amnio for Wednesday, October 5th followed by his C-Section on Thursday, October 6th at noon. Looks like Snowflake and his dad are going to share the same birthday. The dates are tentative, as Dr. Tabsh will have to do the amnio. This is also dependent on the results of the amnio. So if it fits his schedule and the amnio is clear, our little guy will be here next week! In other news, he is measuring at 5lb 8oz. His legs however, are measuring at 37 weeks even though he was only 34+5 on Monday. Last weekend Snowflake was in a playful mood. Frank had is arm resting on my belly and Snowflake was tapping all along the length of his arm. When Frank took his hand away Snowflake stopped searching for a few seconds before starting to look for that thing he was playing with. It felt like he was backtracking trying to figure out where his toy went. I could feel him tapping along the part of my belly where Frank's arm was resting. That was pretty neat. |
