Well...I had another doctor's appointment today and it went well. My blood pressure is good, I didn't get sick this time when I had to lay there for 25 minutes while they monitored the baby's heart beat and the doctor said the baby's size is less then average! She said it measured smaller then it did a week and a half ago...go figure. There's the wonderful high tech machines they have!!! haha! So unreliable! She said the baby's weight is 5lbs 9oz. So with 3 weeks and 4 days to go, let's hope he doesn't gain more then the 1/2lbs a week! I think I can handle a 7lbs baby! =) I also had a tour of the hospital yesterday and it was pretty uneventful. The labor room has a really weird shaped bed. It has a rectangle shape where your head goes (or above), the middle part of the bed is a big circle and then there's another big wide rectangle where your legs go. It also had a rope with 2 knots hanging from the ceiling...hmmm...? The bed thing doesn't look to comfy, so let's hope I'm not in there long!!! After, you're put in a room where most likely I will be sharing (blah) with someone else if the maternity ward is full! Grr...but if Sai wants to stay the night I can get a private room if we pay $50/night. So we'll see about that. The Germans have to stay in the hospital for a minimum of 3 days as health care requires, but British military patients can leave when they feel like it since the midwife will visit the house every day for 10-14 days after the birth. Well..just 25 days to go till my due date!!! =0)
