I had my monthly OB appointment yesterday. The doctor said I'm measuring (they measure you from the top of your uterus to the bottom via the abdomen)larger than normal, but really didn't elaborate. I asked if maybe they had gotten my due date wrong and she just turned around and filled out the exam form. I hate doctors like that. Why tell me anything if she wasn't willing to discuss it further with me? All I can assume is that the little peanut is, as we already know, very tall. I am hoping that the OB (there are like 12 at this practice) that delivers this baby isn't her. I can just see myself screaming at her in the middle of a contraction. Maybe that would be a good thing. Then at least I wouldn't feel guilty. It's not like OB/GYN's do much during a vag birth anyway. They come in at the end, catch the baby and sew you up. The maternity nurses are the ones that stand there all day doing all the gross stuff. -That reminds me... I should pack a gift for my maternity nurse. I would have given my last one a kidney if she'd have asked. She was the best.
