I've had 2 doctor appointments one here in the "burg" and the other at UW. The first one went alright. BP was up and weight was down a few pounds. Weight is nothing to worry about, at least yet. Honestly it's less weight to worry about losing after this pregnancy is over. Baby "C" is growing fine, and NO I'm not starving her or myself. For now we are keeping a close eye on my BP.
The second appointment in Seattle went alright as well. As long as things stay calm it was hopefully my last one. There is always a chance that I will have to go back either before or after having the baby, but hopefully not. For those that don't know Pre-E sometimes raises its ugly head after delivery, so delivery doesn't mean you are safe and clear.
I had a NST (non-stress test) and she looked good, once they got her awake. There was a med change and as long as everything stays the way it is and doesn't raise then we can continue on. If things raise then we will adjust as needed. I have to go into the Docs here twice a week for NST's besides the normal visits now. I should be able to stay out of L&D though since he can do the NST's at his office. That is a nice surprise. I have nothing against the hospital of course, but it's just easier at the Docs.
I was also told that I only have 4 or 5 weeks left. I will be induced between 37-38 weeks. That puts us at around October 25th, which is what I was thinking anyway, but now we know for sure. I just want to know the date. There is so much going on right around that time, that an actual date would be great.
We stayed in Tacoma the rest of the weekend and we were able to go to the Puyallup Fair with my Parents and Brother. The weather was great on Saturday. We seriously lucked out. It was rainy and funky the day before and after, but Saturday was low 80's and the kids actually got a little sun on the cheeks and necks. The kids had a blast and were able to go on rides and have some treats like a Bull Chip and Scones (which to me are just plain ol' gross, but most people like them.)
Some highlights from the day at the Fair.

Makes me laugh that Jared has a death grip on Steve's knee.
Aaron and Ally. She really did enjoy it, though she doesn't look like she is.

Hope all goes well! My daughter, Stephanie Ann, will be having her baby on the 25th via C-Section. It's a boy.
Look like fun! :) One of these years I really want to get back for that...
You're almost done!! I can't believe it.
How fun! I'm glad things are pretty uneventful for you as of now.
