We had a doctor's appointment this morning. Everything is looking great. I have been swelling a lot more, especially in my feet and ankles at the end of the day, but my blood pressure is still great and the baby's heartbeat was great, so we're not worried about it. They did tell me I could try wearing my compression socks to see if that helps. I really miss running so maybe breaking out the compression socks will make me feel better about that too. :)
I also had to do the Group B strep test today. It's really not a bad test in theory, just a cotton swab at the vaginal opening and at the rectum, but for some reason it was really not pleasant. I'm experiencing a lot of pressure down there anyway and generally don't really want that general area messed with, so it wasn't happy to be swabbed. In fact, it was over an hour ago and I've felt pretty miserable every since.
Although I'm generally feeling uncomfortable these days anyway. I'm refraining from saying I feel miserable, but I definitely don't feel great. Really I think I can only say I feel 9 months pregnant.
