Dropping and Checking and Fitting and Growing
Our 36 week appointment (yes, 36 WEEKS!) went smoothly today. Tomorrow, we are one month out from our due date. What?!
Even though the box of Girl Scout thin mints I hid in the freezer got the best of me last night (darn those small cookies and not looking at the serving size until after I wolfed down half a sleeve), I'm not puffing or swelling yet and just hit the 20 lb point today. Cause for celebration?!
And because I'm afraid I'll get threatening calls if I don't update on this, no dilation, the baby is starting to drop and I'm 50% effaced.
And I think that's the last time I'll talk about my cervix on the world wide web.
Bonus - the baby is measuring right at 35 weeks (I'm 35 and a half) so I can cross #24 off our nesting list.
Our doctor says we're doing just fine size-wise. Whew!
