so todays appointment meets with some frustrating news-  not only is NOTHING happening, but some concern was mentioned that the reason things MAY NOT have progressed is possibly due to the fact that the kid just won’t fit where he needs to be.  he said it raises the chance of a c section for me from 25% to 50%.  This entire pregnancy i have been telling jason that its the one thing i DO NOT want….so this news is going to take a bit of digesting.  The other peice to that is…the doctor laughed at me when i said i was hoping for a tiny little 6 pounder.  He said he thinks i was past that a few weeks ago.

so we scheduled an ultra sound for next week…the doctor made some mention of scheduling a c section if it showed some 10 1/2 pound baby had taken up residence in side of me.  sheesh
For those of you who haven’t heard the weight saga…get this…so 2 weeks ago i go in, the same tech i have had for 7 months weighs me and sends me on my merry way.  the doctor comes in and says “oh, and don’t worry, you haven’t gained 18 pounds in the last week” (alluding to a mistake the tech had made)  so a week ago, i go in and the same tech weighs me and says “oh my god! you lost 16 pounds!”  I patiently explained the mix up from the previous week, and she swore up and down it wasn’t her who did it.  I didn’t have the heart to burst her bubble…sorry honey, i see you every week.
So this week i go in and she announces to me “you gained 5 pounds in the last week” WHAT?!  is that even healthy?”  well, get back on the scale “oh wait, it says you gained 3 pounds.  Still not ok with me, but i have given up on this girl.  

I asked the doc, he says its probably all fluid and not to worry.  I am a little more worried about this girls technical skills that I am about my weight gain….good thing she works at the clinic and will not be in the delivery room!
