37 WEeKS!!! FuLL TERM!

Hey, I just wanted to let everyone know what's going on with me and my little girl. I've been on bed rest for about 4 1/2 weeks and all is well. I've made it to 37 weeks, and my doctor isn't concerned about her well being at all. He said she's around 7 Lbs. and growing like crazy, so she's definitely passed up her big brother. I went in yesterday one day before my appointment because I've been having so many contractions, they were five minutes apart. I wasn't sure if they were BH, or the real thing. See I never felt them with Maddox, so I didn't know. Anyway I went in and they were the real thing, I've dilated 2 more cm, and I'm almost completely effaced, so my doctor said any day now. He's said he's on alert, so I'm pretty excited. He said that if I was to a 5 he would have just taken me over and broke my water, but I think I'll keep her in there a couple more days. I just hope that Matt will be able to make it. Apparently he wants to be there, he acts like it's a big deal...j/k, but I hope all goes well.

Congrats! You have done well to keep her in there! Wait till Thursday and we can have our babies together!!! That would be so fun. I have been having contractions like crazy also, but I just don't dialate! I never did with Tia either. Kinda crazy I guess. I'm glad all is well though! Hang in there and good luck!
