Well Wednesday evening when Kevin and I were watching TV, Jett got very active for a few minutes and we could actually see him trying to turn or move in my stomach. My right side sunk way down and my left side went way up, after a few minutes it returned to normal and he got really calm. All day Thursday I had to massage and rub my belly to get him to move and last night in the middle of the night I woke up several times in a panic and had to massage my belly to get him to kick so I could put my mind at ease and go back to bed. So I called the nurse this morning to ask if this was normal or if he was just saving his energy if he was ready to come out or something. She told me that we needed to come in for a BPP (ultrasound) since I was experiencing decreased fetal movement. So we went in and he passed with flying colors, the sonogram tech said that he's just out of room and in the last few weeks the amniotic fluid levels decrease so it isn't as easy to feel all the little movements as it once was. So we got to see our little man on the sonogram and his heart was beating fine and his lungs were working great. We didn't actually see the doctor so I don't have any updates on progress as far as dilation or effacing. After our appointment we went and had lunch (spicy buffalo wings & fiesta lime chicken) and then went and walked laps around the mall. I was walking my heart out as fast as I possibly could. Then when we got home I went for another walk around our neighborhood and then stopped at our neighbors to visit for a little bit. Before I came home I borrowed her elliptical machine, that didn't last very long, that thing kicked my butt!!! So yes, I'm still pregnant. And yes, I'm very annoyed that our doctor told us it could be any day now because I was prepared to go full term and just had hopes he would be a few weeks early but when she said it could be any day now....well now each day that passes just makes me feel like we are OVER our due date and it makes it 10x harder!
