Yesterday we had our 37 week and 2 days appointment. Everything is continuing to progress normally and it seems like our little girl is getting very close to coming into this world. Since last week our baby is still in the same position with her head down and her foot jabbing me right in the ribs (the doctor said she wont move from this position; lucky me!). Also, mom is now 2 centimeters dilated! We asked the doctor how far along does a mother usually dilate before labor starts. Of course, the doctors can never give you an exact answer to anything because every labor and delivery is different for every woman. She said
usually they wont dilate past 3 centimeters. So, we will see, but this little girl might come out a little before her due date.
I'm trying to keep busy and not get to focused on wondering when she is going to arrive. I'm starting to have contractions now, but they differ in strength, length, and frequency every time. As we approach the big day we are getting more and more excited. Sometimes I feel like this pregnancy has gone by so fast and then again, it's hard to remember what it's like to not be pregnant.
