39 week appointment

I had my 39 week appointment today. My BP was good, but my doctor was a little concerned when I told her I wasn't feeling Owen move as much as I have been. I didn't really think anything of it b/c even though he is not moving AS much when he does move it is like full, painful stretch up into my lungs and low in my pelvis, like he has no more room to move...so I would rather him NOT move too much, ha. I had my my favorite very thorough Dr. again today, so she wanted to make sure everything was okay with him, so she decided to do a quick ultrasound and hook me up to a monitor for 15 minutes to measure his movements/heartrate. (If it was my not-so-favorite Dr, he probably would have just said "go home and drink some wine and relax" to get him moving, no joke, he told my co-worker that before!) Anyways, I got a little view of his BIG head, but it was just the back b/c he is face down and really really low in my pelvis, which is good she said. She also said I have A LOT of amniotic fluid, so that could be another reason I am not feeling him as much, as well as he is just running out of room to move around. The monitor results came back just fine, and she said I had like 3 contractions during the 15-20 minutes of monitoring...which I didn't know! I had back pain, but I am so used to it, I didn't even realize that it could be a contraction! Sooo that is basically it, not really sure if that means anything, we will just have to see when Owen wants to make his debut! Hopefully sooner than later!!!!!
