Today marks 39 weeks of pregnancy… So obviously, the whole 3cm & 80% effacement last week didn’t spell imminent labor. However, the second I sat down to write this, I had a contraction — but I’ve been getting one or two of them a day for the past few days. Yesterday’s doctor’s appointment didn’t really tell me anything new since I declined the optional internal exam to spare myself the discomfort, and my doc didn’t press the issue. He said that if I haven’t had the baby by next week, we’ll do another one. That seems fair.
Also, my co-workers took me out to lunch today and gave me a very generous gift certificate. I swear, some of those ladies are more excited about this than I am. I’m looking at you, Darcy and Jenn.
There’s really nothing else interesting to report. I just can’t wait to meet our little guy face to face. And the waiting… oh the waiting is killing me!
