Yea! 35 weeks!

So after 5 weeks and 2 days on bedrest I have made it to 35 weeks! I am especially excited about this because I had a tentatively set up c-section for yesterday. My little girl, although looking very healthy, is growing very slowly (she has fallen from the 43rd to under the 10th percentile in the past 6 weeks). My MFM had said that if she hadn't grown anymore by 2/10 then they would do a c-section the next day. I was downing protein shakes and eating peanut butter by the jar (literally spoon fulls of peanut butter!) hoping for some growth. Well, it worked! She is still under the 10th percentile, but my MFM says that he's okay with me going another 2 weeks so I can get them to 37 weeks! So now I have a c-setion date of 2/26, which is the absolute latest they'll let me go, but I would be considered term and by then the babies should get to come home with me!

 

:clapping: Congrats on making it to 35 and still going strong!! :clapping:

PB popsicles....yummy, I am glad those and the protein shakes did the trick. Can't wait to hear your birth story and see pictures. Only 14 days to go.

Take care and rest up!

 

Yay WTG mom that's some great growing you are doing!!

I'm 35 wks today too, and counting down to 37+5 days for my c/s date!

 

CONGRATULATIONS!!!

WTG!!!

 

Woohooo! You rock, you are doing a great job. I hope it is smooth sailing from here.
