37 Weeks & Counting

I feel huge!  I am unbelievably sore and my pelvis feels like it’s about to fall off or split in two.  The searing pains in my stomach are still coming and going and now I have pelvic pain, heartburn, and backache to accompany it.  The baby has dropped and is very, very low.  At my 35 week appointment I was 2 cm dilated.  On Tuesday I go back to the doctors for my next check up.  I am hoping that I am more dilated and progress is being made.  I have been having false labor contractions for well over a month now so I hope the pain hasn’t been complete waste.  My 38 week appointment will be December 27th and my doctor has agreed to “strip my membranes” to try to help things along a little bit.  Here’s hoping this baby comes out early!  I would love extra time off from daycare and the tax break!
