Update, 40 weeks

40w3d

Woohoo! We have progress!

I just returned from my 40 week appointment with my doctor. I'm still about 50% effaced, but I'm now beginning to dilate too, which is great news. We scheduled my next follow-up for Tuesday, but hopefully things will get moving before then. His heartbeat is still strong, and though I didn't gain any weight this week, the belly grew another 2 cm. I'm catching up to where I "should" be...I'm now measuring only 1 cm behind instead of 2 cm.

The good news is that if Cookie does decide to get moving this weekend, my doctor happens to be the on-call doctor. Yay for that!

His parting words as I left the office today were "Go and have a baby, already!" I'm working on it doc, I'm working on it!
