36 Week Appointment Update!

Well ladies I had my 36 week appointment today. It definitely went better than last time. My blood pressure is a little high, but no where near what it was last time. Its now 125/87. I did my GBS test, which by the way is the easiest test on the face of the planet! haha And I find out those results next week at my appointment. She also asked if I wanted her to check my cervix and I said sure. I am 1cm dilated, 50% effaced, but still quite high at a -3 station (thats the highest right?). Ever since she checked me I have been having contractions off and on, but nothing major. She said she doesnt expect any labor in the next week, but any time after that is possible and if I want to get things going fast to walk walk walk and have lots of sex... I told DH the walk part, but not the sex part! haha Oh and she also ordered DH to give me lots of back rubs with tennis balls for my aching back! YAY! I love her! haha
