Hello ladies! Just got home from OB appointment. It was really quick, but everything's good. I've gained 7 pounds in the last 2 weeks!!!! I guess that's a good thing, since the doc was worried I wasn't gaining enough, but sheesh! Doc also did the strep test. Easiest swab ever!!! During the cervical check, doc said she could feel the head, so LO is in a good position, and that the cervix is dilated fingertip width. Not sure if that means I'm totally effaced or what. I should have asked. Lower back hurts a bunch today... can't get good posture no matter what... bet it's her moving down and my hips widening even more for labor. OH says he gives me till the end of the month. I hope not! Let her bake as long as possible! Also, I might be getting my first stretchies

maybe I just scratched myself, though, since they're pretty high up on the bump... I will be monitoring them closely.
