2 days til my 33 week appt. I am so anxious to see my little girl and make sure she is ok in there. Her movements have really changed over the past couple weeks and have me worried. But I know its the time when they get big and stop moving as much. I'm glad I have been through this before to know a little bit about it, to put my mind at ease. I will post on Friday that everything is well! Until then...

Low fluid
Today I had my 31 week appt. I am finally measuring at 31 weeks!! yay for that! Its the first time I have actually measured on target. I was measuring 2 weeks behind for quite a while. I also finally gained a good amount of weight. So those were both great signs. But my amniotic fluid was low at my sonogram 3 weeks ago. On a scale of 5-25 I was at a 7. So today he did another sonogram and measured me at a 9. He said it can depend a little on how she is sitting and how much of the fluid they can see. They measure 4 different pockets and add them up. He said 9 is definitely better then 7 but still not ideal. He said we would like to see closer to 11 or 12 at this point. So in 2 weeks I go for my next OB appt and will have another sonogram to check the levels. If they are between 5-8 I will have to be induced. I will only be at 33 weeks at that time, so I am PRAYING and hoping you will too that the amount of fluid will increase.
