36 Weeks

Today Tal and I went to the OB for my 36-week appointment. Savannah and I both received good reports. My blood pressure and weight gain (31 lbs. to date) were normal. I also had three other routine tests done, but I'm not worried that the test results will impact Savannah's delivery.

Savannah's heartbeat was healthy and consistent at 150 beats per minute. When the doctor felt my belly, he predicted that Savannah is head-down, which is right where she needs to be for delivery. We're hoping Savannah stays there. :-)

From now on, Tal and I will be going to the OB weekly to check Savannah's progress and to see if I've dilated. After all these months of waiting, we're counting down the last four weeks or so before Savannah is born. Wow!
