Luke was always measuring a week ahead after the 20 week ultrasound, Doc said he would be over 8lbs, but he was born the day before my Due date and was only 7lbs 10 oz, which I think is fairly average.

Your getting soo close!!! Pretty soon (Like in 7 weeks) you can try the Romain salad and Eggplant

.

I'm actually having a c-section.

It's scheduled for the 16th of August, which I'll be 39 weeks and 3 days or something like that...

Ohh, so not labor inducing foods

.

Well C-sections wasn't that bad for me, I actually had the NICU nurses telling me I was acting like I had a normal birth, and I needed to take it easy. But with a baby in the NICU, I wasn't even paying attention to myself, I was only worried about him. I finally overdid it and had to rest for a day, but overall it wasn't too bad. It's just the first few days that are scary, your afraid to move... and super afraid to poop, LOL. Have stool softeners and Milk of magnesia in the house, it was like 5 days until I finally went, but it was mostly out of fear, LOL.

they can give you antibiotics before the baby is born... try not to stress to much about it... sometimes those test can also be wrong. My test came backnegitive but when my last baby was born she tested possitive

What is the concern?

Lots of people test positive for that, from what I understand (at least perineally).

As annoying as it sounds when you're upset, stay positive

I had that before I got pregnant. I was on antibiotics for a week or so and then re-checked and it was negative. They will check me again at 36-37 weeks...

Appointment went well this morning...I'm the same weight that I was at my last appointment, 3 weeks ago.

I think cutting carbs and all refined sugars has helped. I got to peak the baby--saw the cord, her feet but she was hiding her face.

She's still measuring a little ahead but the fluid levels in there are great.

I'm measuring 1cm ahead as far as my fundus goes. Which is such a funny word. Why don't they just just call it external uterine measurement?

Anyway, I'm heading outside to meet the farrier and hold four horses for him. DH said he'd be back from fishing by now to help but apparently, he was wrong.
