39 weeks

Back at the hospital's maternity assessment unit to have checks again today.

My belly was connected to the monitor (pictured) for half an hour, at which point baby fell asleep! She was so wiggly in the waiting room beforehand! We got her moving in the end with a bar of chocolate and a few cups of cold water.

My blood pressure is still high and together with my age and medical history they're keen to get baby moving along... so they tried to give me a membrane sweep today. My cervix wasn't in the right place (?!) to make this easy so they're going to have another go on Wednesday.
