39 week appointment

Ah, I'm terrible, I can't believe I forgot to update.

Anyway, so today I saw my favvvv doctor in the practice. He did an exam and said I am now 2 cm dilated, 80-90% effaced. He also said I have a very favorable cervix and I should do well during labor. I also lost my mucous plug during the exam. He said he also though my membranes were about ready to rupture.

I'm so relieved that things are progressing, but it was a serious wake up call at the same time.

Dr. Balica is on call tomorrow and he said he might see me then. It would be awesome to me if he would deliver because I really feel comfortable with him. He said he doesn't think I'll make it through the weekend.

I'm so excited, I'm going to be a mommy soon!!!!!!!

36 Week Appointment

And we have progress! Doctor said since this is my first baby, I probably wouldn't be dilated, but she was wrong! I am..or I was on Friday 1 CM dilated. I know that isn't a great indicator of what is to come, but oh well! I also had the GBS test done. It was no big deal, just a qtip and boom, done!

I will be back on Friday for my 37 week appointment and see what happens then. She said they don't check for dilation at every appointment, but we will see if they do since I had been dilating previously.

Anyway, I am anxious to get this baby out now. Bring on the contractions!
