update-dr's appointment today went for an NSS

[hkenny]

Well had my regular appointment today and my dr sent me to the hospital for a none stress test. dont get why they call it that, cuz it stressed me out!! lol. anyways i just told her that movements seemed to have decreased the last few days so as a precaution she sent me in. the first 15 minutes Brielle was sleeping......then she got pretty active! so all is well. i have to start doing kick counts daily now.
dr told me as of next appointment she will start to check my cervix, yippee!! (not)
it kinda seemed like she thinks i might go early,maybe i am reading to much into it but she just said b/c my moms kids were all early my chances are higher.

At least they didn't pull the buzzer out on you! They have this awful little vibrating buzzer that they use for stimulation, I feel SO bad when they have to use it b/c Addy starts flipping out.

See why I said I was stressed! I was doing 2 or 3 a week!!! So glad that's over only one next week! :)

My Dr. won't check my cervix? He said this late in the game it can "stimulate" things? So he opted to just wait till next week when we are scheduling anyways! I'll be almost 36 weeks. But you will be that far too then so maybe he just meant b4 35 weeks IDK.

I'm glad all is well!! :)

Good to hear things went well.  Reece wanted to sleep when I went for my NST this week.  I had to drink and drink to get him up and moving.  I go every week for one until he comes, so I've got to figure ways to keep him awake, because apparently breakfast and one orange juice puts him to sleep...

You know they tell us not to stress but its hard not to.....I mean we are so harmonal and emotional we dont have much of a choice.... :-) But on a serious note I am really happy everything went well.
