At my 38 week appointment, my doctor said that I was about 50% effaced (finally, some progress!). I just came home from my 39 week appointment and there was still no change from last week. *sigh*
Here is what I experienced during the last 2 weeks...
* inner upper thigh cramps
* acid reflux... I feel like acid reflux is worse during this trimester than any other
* sharp shooting pains in lower abdomen/cervix
* cervical pains... baby boy's head was really low at my 38 week checkup
* Braxton Hicks... these have become more frequent but have not intensified
* nausea... I had a couple of days when I randomly experienced this
* upper abdominal pains... at the very end of week 38, I had the most horrible pains while trying to sleep. I was literally on the verge of tears because it felt like my ribs were broken.
During week 37, I was fighting a really bad cold so I slept a lot but was miserable because I couldn't breathe. Other than that, not too many symptoms these past 2 weeks and none really different from my last post (except for the severe rib pains). I'm almost at the finish line... just trying to hang in there for as much more time as my little guy needs.
