We're Making Progress!!!

So I went for my 36 week check-up this past Thursday and we are 1 centimeter dilated and 75% effaced (meaning cervix is almost all thinned out)!! Woo hoo!! The doctor seems to think this baby is going to be here much more sooner than October 3rd. She told me that the baby's head is down real low (I could have told her that considering my bladder does not belong to me anymore!) and depending on how much more I've dilated by next week we could have a baby in about 2 weeks.

According to most of my "mom" friends, the doctors don't usually tell you that unless they really think it will be sooner because they don't want you to anticipate something that isn't going to come for awhile.

I have been having quite a few contractions (Braxton-Hicks ones I suppose) but they are definitely getting more intense, starting low and moving to my lower back. We just need to get them a little more regular!

Other than that everything has been swell with us. I have put myself on semi-house arrest, meaning I am not traveling anywhere outside a 20 mile area. I made my last trip up to the Lehigh Valley labor day weekend. I just can't handle the car rides - way too uncomfortable!!

We will keep everyone posted on my status after this next doc's appt.
