We had our 36 week doctor appointment yesterday and I’m in a little bit of a shock right now…but each pregnancy is different so I should not be I guess. Also yesterday was the day for all measurements to be off because their scale said I lost 5 pounds (which I know I didn't...I lost 1 not 5) and I only measured 33 cm instead of 36. My Dr. is in Mexico on vacation so I saw another doctor and his table is totally different than my doctor so that could be why I measured 33 instead of 36...or the doctor said it could be that Colton is moving down already and so at this point the measurements are not as accurate as they have been in the past due to the baby #1 not having as much room inside and #2 this is the point where the baby could be moving down so as long as Colton is moving like normal everything is fine (and he is...the little guy moves all the time!) Anyway, back to details...I just had my 36 wk check up and I’m already 2 cm dilated, 50% effaced and -2 station! I was not even 1 cm until wk 38 with Lauren. I’m hoping he does not decide to come in the next 2 wks because I’ve got too much to get done! LOL I’ll be fine with October 18th or after. No really I’ll be happy with anytime as long as he is healthy…but like I said I’m in a little bit of a shock right now! Maybe this doctor is just very generous with his measurements and when you are really 1-2 cm he tells you 2 and when you are really 40-50% he tells you 50% thinking that's what you want to hear? So I'll be interested to see what my normal doctor says next week. :-) Just wanted to share the news. Have a great weekend everyone!
