37 Weeks, 6 Days Appointment

I had another checkup on Thursday.  Everything still looks good.  BP was 102/62 and I was up one pound since last week.  I saw another doctor in the practice again this week (mine was out of town).  Baby's heartbeat was good, and I am about 1 cm dilated.  I have an ultrasound on Wednesday and the doctor didn't think anything would happen before then.

I'm still extremely swollen, especially on my right side.  I attempted to get a picture of my ankles but that's a hard angle to capture!


I've also started to go numb on whatever side I sleep on at night.  Especially my hand and lower arm.  My right hand and wrist have been going to sleep or getting really sore during the day now too.  Apparently, when you swell, it can also affect your nerves.  The doctor said I basically have pregnancy carpal tunnel.  Yay :)

Otherwise, I'm doing good!
