BR - Bed Rest update - again

Well I am still on bed rest.  The baby and I look good, but it looks like the rest is really helping.

I am down another 2.5 pounds (so even less than my regular appointment about 2 weeks ago).  So my total is only 15.5 pounds at this point.

My blood pressure is eh.  When they first take it it's a little high for me but not too bad.  When I rest on my side for a few minutes it goes down to great numbers (hence the theory that bed rest is doing baby and me well).

I had another ultrasound today (#8) to watch for movement, practice breaths, and check fluid levels.  They all looked good.  So we're doing a non-stress test on Thursday.

My OB's goal is to get me to at least 37 weeks (friday) if not 38 weeks before we look at inducing.
