dr appt. 38 weeks

I had a dr. appointment this morning and a non stress test after that. Both went well. The dr. appt was super quick. They just weighed my and did my blood pressure. Both were good- I'm happy that I have only gained 25 lbs this pregnancy! The dr thought it should be pretty easy to take the weight off. She told me that I would get discharged from the hospital on Sunday at the earliest, but depending on me and Olivia it could be Monday. She also told me about recovery from the c-section and how I can't lift anything heavier than the baby for a while. She did say that I should be feeling good by 2 weeks though and good enough after the 1st week to not need strong pain medications. The best thing that she told me was that I could eat breakfast before 6 am the day of surgery. I was stressing because the scheduler told me nothing after midnight and I didn't know how that would be possible with a 230 section and blood sugar issues! Anyway that was my LAST dr. appt this pregnancy and I will just see her on Friday! weird! After that appointment I went over to Deaconess for another non stress test and Olivia did fine. She wasn't moving as much as she was at the previous appt (or as much as she was at 3 am this morning) but she moved plenty in the 1st 20 minutes or so and increased her heart rate each time she moved so they let me go! The weird thing was the nursing student there helping the nurse for the day was also named Olivia! Her middle name was also after her great grandmother (but it wasn't Violet)- too weird! I wasn't having any contractions this time on the monitor. Oh and the doctor felt my belly and Olivia is still way up high. I'm guessing if I were to have delivered Olivia I would have had to be induced anyway since she seems to be in no hurry on getting out of there! Anyway that's the news now. No changes, still scheduled for my section and excited to meet our little girl in 4 days!
