30 (ish) week checkup

Well, today was my 29 week, 5 day checkup. Not a whole lot to report, but a couple of things.

Baby Adler is measuring right on track for how far along we are. His heartbeat was still steady in the 150's. My glucose screening came back normal and my iron is up 1 point since I started taking my iron pills. So on that front, everything looks great.

I told my dr that I've had a few cases of contractions that lasted for an hour or so and actually caused pain, mostly in my back. I woke up with them last night/this morning at about 3:30 and they only lasted for about thirty minutes, but they sure hurt. I told her I didn't really think anything of them because they did eventually go away, but she wanted to check me anyway. Well, after she had to leave to deliver a baby at the hospital next door, she came back in and checked my cervix. I am actually dilated to 1 cm already, but it is still pretty thick. She isn't really concerned but wants me to start coming in every 2 weeks now. If I have more contractions that are painful, she'll check me again at my next appointment. Hopefully it is nothing and it is just due to this being my second child. Also, if I have painful contractions that don't go away by the two hour mark, I'm to head into her office or to the hospital. I'll update more if anything happens, if not, plan on my next post in two weeks! I hope that life is going great for everyone! God Bless!
