Doctor visits

Today I had my 39 week checkup. although technically I am 39 weeks tomorrow. Dexter's heart rate is still in the 140s, belly still measures on track. He is still head down, but he hasn't dropped down yet. They did an internal exam - my cervix is nice and soft and I am about 2.5 cm dilated. My next visit is Tuesday morning, the 28th. Hopefully I will continue to progress and start having some regular contractions.

We also saw Dan's ortho doctors today. They removed the quasi-cast on his hand and replaced it with a metal splint and gave him some exercises he can do to prevent his shoulder from getting stiff. He doesn't need to wear the sling if he doesn't want to for his broken clavicle - they basically said do whatever he is comfortable with painwise while it heals naturally over the next 3-6 weeks.
