That's right we are in double digits all ready, 99 days left to go!!! Woohoo!!! Technically I only have about 85-92 days left at most if my OB still plans to induce me like he does, but seeing 99 days left on my countdown looks awesome.
On Monday, John came with me to my NST. The hospital has this special room where all the NSTs are performed. So when we got their there was a note posted on the door saying that all NSTs were being performed in L&D. I immediately got excited because I just love going into L&D to see how it is inside. I have been there twice to get my Rhogam shot, but I've only been in a small little room. The maternity and L&D at the hospital are locked for security reasons, so I had to tell the nurse that I was there for a NST. She opened the doors and the nurse who always performs them recognizes me all ready. So she took us down the corridor and into a new wing of L&D which I had never seen. So we walked into this big room and she asked me if I wanted to sit on the bed or sit on the reclining chair. I told her I would sit on the chair. So I started looking around at the room and noticed that this must be one of the delivery room. I asked her if it was, and she said yes. So she was showing us all the equipment inside. It's a really nice room both John and I were really impressed with how nice the delivery rooms are there. There is a nice size bed, a reclining chair, a normal chair, a flat screen tv on the wall, a radio, a nice bathroom, it has large windows on one side. In general it's a very spacious room, like a big hotel room. Of course there is also the scale to weigh the baby as soon as he is born, the warmer, the NST machine, and other equipments as well. I just got so excited to think that in just 3 months I'll be in there, in one of those nice rooms delivering my little boy.
John was very happy to hear the little one's hb. It was the first time he had ever heard it. It was beating away in the 150 range. This time everything looked great with the little guy. His heart still had a little drop, but the nurse was not concerned at all with it. I really think it's because he's getting older now. Normally you start having NSTs at 28 weeks not at 22 weeks like me. So we got a good result. Let's just hope that from now on everything is going well with him.
Tomorrow is my last monthly appt with my OB. Starting tomorrow I see him every 2 weeks again. Tomorrow afternoon I'm also interviewing pediatrician #2. I have interviewed one pediatrician that I really liked, so let's see how this one is tomorrow. I have a feeling I will like both and than I won't know which one to choose. I'll keep you all posted!!!
