36 Week Appointment

Today,  I had my 36 week ob appointment, and there's lots of news to share!

1. I am between 1 and 2 centimeters dilated.   This could mean nothing since many women walk around dilated for weeks.  Still exciting, though!
2. My blood pressure was slightly elevated (130/80 ish).  I now must be mindful about other symptoms of preeclampsia (head aches,  nausea) and go to L&D for monitoring if anything changes.  I have been feeling a lot of swelling in my hands and feet,  which is another symptom. 
3. I am having another ultrasound on Tuesday (July 12) so we can get an estimate of our baby's weight.
