midwife appt

[allgirls]

still routine!

Heartbeat was 134(sleeping baby)
BP was 100/64
measuring 38
baby has dropped about 2 inches since last appt...I thought so and she verified it...said she couldn't believe baby was dropped this much..unusual for 4th baby until labour

Didn't do internal

She said she's good to go with homebirth...she took more blood but said it's likely ok and she's comfortable since I feel fine.

We talked about the contractions I am having...we talked about my last false labour and I told her that happened after having my membranes stripped not on it's own...she didn't realise that(she wasn't my midwife last time) so we talked about when to call her...I reassured her I will call her as soon as I feel I need her which is very vague but true...if I don't feel we need her at all then I won't call

So it was positive and good...I really like her.

We didn't do internal since I don't want that even in labour so no idea about dilation or effacement or anything.

I am very tired today and have been having irregular contractions for hours...off to bed to sleep, to see which way it goes.

cheers

I'm glad everything is good to go! My mw just abruptly stopped checking my hemoglobin. She'd been concerned and checking it every appt, then I got it checked elsewhere and it was fine, so neither of us have mentioned it since!

Sounds like a great appt! My appt is today at 1. I can't believe tomorrow is my due date already. It felt like it would never get here hehe.
