The contractions stopped shortly after I posted the journal entry online at 5 am. I slept between 5:30 and 7:30 and then went to the hospital for my non-stress test, which went off with flying colors.
Peanut was moving and shaking. I have had a few irregular contractions on and off today after having about an hour's worth this am, but nothing exciting to report yet. I feel like I cried wolf....:)Happy weekend!

36 Week Dr ApptDate: 05/19/2006
Went to the dr yesterday for the weekly appointment, which turned out to be a long one! I had a surprise ultrasound just to make sure the baby wasn't breech, which (s)he is not. The head is down and the little sucker at that time was wrapped up and around the top of my belly. Unusual positioning she said, but I can often feel it back out, the right way for delivery, so I'm not worried.
I also had to do a non-stress test, which means that they put a fetal and maternal heart rate monitior on you and the display prints out on a piece of paper. That was kinda cool because I could tell when I tapped where the baby's feet are the heart rate would raise and then it would soothe down when I rubbed in that same area.
Everything looks good. I keep saying the baby feels like it is coming early, but she didn't give me any indication of this. So I will keep you posted!
