TWO WEEKS LEFT!

Today I am 38 weeks. yesterday I had my 38 week appointment and I have to be honest I was Pretty let down. Last week I was 1 cd dilated and 60% effaced at a -2 station I thought for sure i would be at least a little bit more effaced this week.. No such luck. I am still at 1cm dilated 60% effaced and a -2 station. So basically no progress WHAT SO EVER! The one exciting thing that did happen was she i guess got a better hold of his head this time and she was like shocked as to how much hair she felt. Not a huge suprize to me because From what i hear the day I was born I had over an inch and a half of hair that the nurses put into a pony tail : )

On a good note the doctor said she really doesnt think I will go past my due date and that I shouldnt need to be induced which is a plus because induction was something i wanted to stay away from!

Just to make sure that i dont go past my due date she will be stripping my membranes(membrane sweep) next week on monday at my 39 week appointment. That way if i dont go into labor by my 40 week appointment she can do a second membrane sweep and from what she tells me most woman will go into labor after having two membrane sweeps.

I however am hoping i go into labor the weekend of the 9th which is right before my due date because the following weekend(weekend of the 17th) we are having a mini family get together that i would like to feel good enough to attend.I kind of have a strange feeling he will either be born on or i will go into labor on the 11th but who knows. not much else has really happen this week : ( I am really looking forward to my next appointment, next monday, to see if my body has made any progress!! I am going to try really hard to get a lot of walking in this week to help him drop but at the end of the day Aries is going to come when he is good and ready and... I am okay with that : )

9 1/2 months preggo! he is going to be such a monster! they say he is in the 80% for how big he is! Cant wait to meet my little peanut.... well i guess my giant peanut!!! : )
