37 weeks...

...and still waiting. On Sunday, I started having contractions at church and by 6 they were coming every 3 to 5 minutes and were strong. So we called in the baby-sitters and went to the hops ital. At least I wasn't crazy, I was having contractions and they were closer than what I thought. But I was still at 1 cm. Boooo. After an hour of sitting and waiting and contracting, I was checked again. 1 1/2 cm. Double booo! So we went home and the contractions finally went away around midnight.

I haven't had anything like that again. I had a doctor's appointment yesterday and I had regressed back to 1 cm. What, seriously?? Oh child, why are you torturing your mother like.

And this doctor hasn't even told me how far effaced I am. I always remember to ask, hours later.

Other than the lack of dilation, I'm doing very well. Blood pressure looks great, no UTI's, all is well. So, just keep praying that this kiddo comes soon. Today would be cool. 7/8/09. That's an awesome birthday. Stay tuned for the baby drama. I know he'll come soon, but not soon enough!
