This morning the doctor said the little one is "engaged" - aka "dropped"!
From all that I read, that means I am supposed to be breathing easier. Not so much. Ah well, I'm hearing that once I deliver, the breathing will be easier then. :) The sleeping will be much less, but at least I will be able to breathe (and maybe stop snoring?)!
Due date is Sunday, but the doc wanted me to make an appt to go back in on Monday morning to get checked. They said they will discuss induction options with me at that point.
Oh and the maternity belt finally came in today - I have an appt tomorrow afternoon to get that molded/fitted to me. Hoping that will help with some of the back pain and pressure.
One thing we need to work on is how to get the monitor positioned in the nursery so that we will be able to see him in the crib. One of the things on the to-do list! I also want to do a big grocery store run and a few other things (like match all the bottles and their parts to each other!). Oh boy, this list seems to be getting longer and longer!
Hey,
ReplyDeleteDon't think you will be able to breathe any better until the baby comes! I know all the books say when the baby drops you can breathe easier but for short people like us the baby doesn't have far to drop, lol! That happened to me when Alexander dropped too, I didn't feel any different!
