36 week appointment

We had our 36 week appointment with Dr. Campbell today. I have heard he is the weight nazi so I was excited that I had lost 1/2 lb. and he was very complimentary on my weight gain for the pregnancy. He said I only gained around 20 lbs the whole time and it should be really easy for me to lose once Owen arrives. :)

Other than that, he said Owen is measuring right on schedule (so no real growth from last week since now he is measuring 37 and I'm almost there). He estimates that he will about 7 to 7 1/2 lb. when born. He is head down and moving a lot. I am not dialated and I continue to remain around 40 to 50% effaced. Dr. Campbell basically said see you next week.

So Owen's holding on for a while. Thursday marks week 37 and he will be considered full term at that point. Only 3 more weeks!
