Ultrasound shows there's not more or less fluid.
NST's haven't been quite as reassuring as they had hoped, not emergency scary, but some-what concerning.
Luckily again last minute, after some apple juice and a lot of shaking (literally) she showed them what they wanted to see. I was getting worried again.
The doc said that at this point there is no point in stopping my labor if I were to go in to labor - because the risk of not stopping the labor isn't greater than allowing the pregnancy to continue on. (even though I'm only 35 1/2 weeks)
He said he wouldn't be surprised if I go in to labor before my c-section, and if I do, he won't allow me to do a VBAC.
It would be too risky with everything going on. So, if I do end up going in, thinking I'm in labor - and they have reason to suspect I may be in labor as well - I will have an "emergency" c-section right then.
So I'm kind of a sitting duck for the next 16 days. But at least it's only 16 days!
