So i had my 38 week checkup this afternoon. i've spent all week doing all the stuff they say to do to go into labor, and i kept not going into labor. i was really afraid i'd go in and my dr. would say "You're 1 1/2 cm dilated, 50% effaced" like he had the last three weeks.
i'm 3 cm dilated and 90% effaced! Isn't that exciting? So i guess, even though i didn't go into labor, all the methods i was using were at least doing something. And i was thinking about it: sometimes it takes hours of hard labor to get to 3 cm, and i got there without feeling it really at all!
So anyway, i don't want to get my hopes up too high, but it's looking good for my going into labor, and soon. Cross your fingers!
Here's a picture of me taken last week. Have a great night everyone!

Yay! Progress is good!
Hooray for freebies! I'm glad you get to skip the long boring part waiting for dilation to get started. Hopefully this bodes well for a quick and easy labor.
Aw, I miss that scintillating smile of yours. Glad to hear about all your various anatomical details, and praying that it all goes great.
You looks so cute! You're almost there--you can do it!!!
