Home Stretch, Literally…
Ever since I knew I was pregnant, I’ve had this tiny seed of an inkling that the baby would be born before his due date. Perhaps it was my keen psychic powers at work, because today my doctor confirmed that I am already 3cm dilated and about 80% effaced. He was actually pretty surprised. Before I freak out and run to the hospital, that doesn’t exactly mean that I’m going to go into labor any minute or even any day — in fact, it could be weeks! However, given that I’m 2 weeks out from the Sprout’s due date, there’s pretty good reason to believe he might be at least little early. Plus, the doc said I’ll most likely go into labor on my own, so I shouldn’t have to worry about induction (which I’m totally jazzed about)! However, I’m really bad at patience, but wait I must. I just need to do all those last-minute things so that I’m not caught unprepared. There’s still a small shopping list of stuff to buy off the registry!
Yay! Wishing you the speediest of labors ever. Go Sprout!
go sprout go!!! lots of good vibes headed your way!!
