And I'm still feeling completely normal after the false alarm last week. Going to the gym to walk on the treadmill this morning then relax as much as possible. The baby is still moving a ton and is high up.
I have an OB appointment tomorrow and I think he might do a "stretch and sweep"..... I heard they really hurt but can be effective.
Effective yes. Painful, oh my golly gosh YES! It is worth it, but be prepared to cry and have cramps after. The doc that did mine though was really rough. I have heard that others never found it as painful.
DD came 10 days late (went into labor on day 9) so I am very much an advocate on not intervening if the heart rate and fluid levels and whatever else is doing ok. The Non stress tests are a bit annoying though but no big deal.
Good luck! I hope the baby comes sooner rather than later! Do you know if they won't let you go past 41 or anything?
Originally the OB said he would let me go 10 days past my due date then last week he said he would let me go a week past so I guess I will see what he says tomorrow.
