I had a midwife appointment yesterday, not with the normal midwife, but one of the back ups and she's just lovely. We ended up talking about all sorts of things, and especially had a rant to each other about that stupid Sunday program and the homebirth crap they put on there.
Anyhoo - after my ranting at her that the baby was breech, she checked and the bugger had flipped! Pretty sure he has flipped back now because I feel something hard under my rib, but I'm happy with that because it shows he still has room to move! And since he hadn't moved for weeks, I really thought he was stuck! She did mention I would have to have a scan closer to my due date though, simply because he will probably keep flipping now.
And other news from the appointment - BP 100/58 (58 is a little low for me, usually I'm around 64), fundal height 33cm (only 1cm different than gestation which was the same as last appointment), baby heartrate 145, urine was free of anything, iron level was fine, I have some slightly elevated white blood cells, but DS had a tummy bug last week so its probably because of that. Or it could be because of my SPD and the inflammation from that.
Also promised to start monitoring my blood glucose levels more regularly since I promised I would do that after declining the GTT. I keep forgetting....
Made another appointment - down to fortnightly visits now!!! Thats scary, now I'm getting closer to the pointy end of the stick....
