32 1/2 weeks check-up

So, I went to the doctor today. Not really BAD news, but not Good. First of all, I gained 5 whole pounds in two weeks. CRAZY. I haven't even been able to eat that much, so it is so weird. I guess I can attribute that to swelling since I have started having a little bit of swelling. Plus, I have been drinking more caffine-free carbonated drinks, so I am going to switch back to water and more water!! Hopefully that will help. I now only have I think 5 lbs left that I can gain. She actually "got onto me" about the weight this time and told me I needed to watch it more closely.
They couldn't get a good heart rate due to him moving around like crazy. The best they could get was it was in the 140s.
She measured me and I was lying really weird on the table this time. Like, I wasn't actually lying flat on my back, I was lying more trendelenburg- head lower than my feet. So I don't know if that would mess up my measurements or not, I am not an expert, but he is measuring only 1 1/2 weeks ahead this time. So, of course he is going to mess up the ultrasound and such. Ha. Oh well, guess I will just have to wait until his birth to see him again!
I have been having a lot of swelling and therefore she wanted to "check" me to make sure I wasn't dilating. My cervix is still closed. YAY! I will admit I have been nervous about having him too early. So that is a GREAT sign. He is still going to hang out in there for a while and bake a little longer. The only bad news is I have a lot of scar tissue from my LEEP procedure I had done back in January. This could cause me problems dilating. Basically it is going to make it hard to tell when I am 'in labor'. I could just all at once (once I am in labor) BAM be fully dilated... or I might not be able to dilate at all causing me to have to have a c-section. I do NOT want a c-section so I am a little nervous about this now. Well that is all for this visit. I go back in two weeks. Then I think I start my weekly visits.
