I had a non-stress test today. The baby was sooo non-stressed that the nurse had to come in twice in a 40 period to wake it up so that they could actually monitor the change in heart rate during activity. She had this neat little device that looked like a sweater shaver but there was a vibrating button where the shaver part would be. Anyhow she just found the babies head and gave it a little vibro action and the Kid woke up pretty darn fast! Which was followed up by an equally fast return to sleep. So she did it again and the Kid stayed awake long enough to kick and move a bit so the whole test wasn’t a total waste of time. In the end the doc said that the test results were perfect. This kid is growing in weight in textbook fashion. I’m hoping to go into labor before 9 lbs!
-baby weight: approx. 3599 grams (approx. 8 lbs)
-head is down
-internal exam showed that I am 2 cm dilated!
