35 week pregnancy update

The dr. is pleased with my weight gain for this pregnancy, only 1 lb. in the last two weeks for 25 lbs. total so far. I probably won't gain a whole lot more in the coming weeks. The baby's heartrate was in the 150's and strong. I had my bacterial culture swab today and the dr. check for dilation. I am 1 cm. dialated, the baby is head down, low, and pretty snug in my pelvis. The good news is that it will probably remain that way till birth and I won't really have to worry about it becoming breech. Not that it isn't possible, it is just unlikely. The dr. estimated that the baby weighs about 6 1/2 lbs. but that can be off by about a 1 lb. in either direction. He also said that he thinks it will probably be about 7 1/2 lbs. when it is born. Nice size but not too big! Sounds good to me!
