He’s Engaged!
Doctors appointment yesterday went very well. Elliot passed the non-stress test easily & I even got a contraction while on the monitor so it was fun to see that line go up! I weight 161 now - a bit more than I ever expected, but I’m sure some of it is water weight since my hands & feet are swollen much of the time. That and all the sweets I’ve been eating…. Anyway, the doctor checked & said that Elliot is at 0 station which means his head is engaged and has fully entered the pelvis! The doctor said that gives me a 95% chance of vaginal delivery! He thinks I’m pretty far effaced, though he explained that the way God made the cervix, it’s opening is behind the head right now to prevent the head from forcing it open & for him to check it it may hurt me & it’s not necessary right now, so he wasnt’ able to tell how far effaced or dilated I am.
