37 Weeks and Doctors Appointment
posted on 02/12/2009
I will be 37 weeks tomorrow! I can't believe how fast these weeks are flying by. I am so ready to hold Rylee. I had my weekly appointment today. Everything with Miss Rylee checked out great. Her heartbeat was 150bpm and I am still only 1 cm dilated.
The bad news was I tested positive as a carrier of Group B Strep. Bummer. My heart totally sank....thinking how is this going to affect my baby. The doctor reassured me that they are very proactive during the labor process and will administer antibiotics to me which will help prevent the baby from contracting Group B. The doctors are not concerned and believe everything with Rylee will check out fine. They said that I am a carrier but I am not infected with the virus. Praise the Lord.
So now our prayers turn to Rylee's delivery. We ask for prayers that Rylee's delivery goes smoothly and that she checks out healthy.
Our next appointment is Thursday, February 19th. We will update you then.
