I had a doctor's appointment yesterday. Typically, Mondays are a NonStress Test for the baby. It measures any contractions I may be having, any baby movements, and his heart rate at all times. Dr. Nezhat decided to do an internal exam to see if we have made any progress. I am now 1 cm dialated and 80% effaced (cervix thinning out-ripening). From all the reading I have done, first time moms seem to efface before dialating. The doctor thinks he will arrive before the 22nd (week 39). However, if he has not arrived by then, we will schedule an induction at that time. Woohoo!
We will be at Northside Hospital in Atlanta for Labor and Delivery.

You can't hold out for ONE more week? C'mon!! I want MORE people born on my birfday!
ReplyDeleteCongrats anyway... sounds like things are working.
Hey Cully, lets make a deal! You can carry the baby for the next 2 weeks, and I will hold out until the 29th. Sounds like a plan to me!
