Progress...

This week I am 38 weeks pregnant, and had good news at my doctor's visit:  progress is being made!  I am now dilated 2 cm and 70% effaced, so all those patternless contractions I'm having are certainly productive.  I was relieved when the doctor mentioned the possibility of induction at 39 weeks so I didn't have to bring it up myself.  I would love to hold this guy in my arms now that he is fully developed and full term.  Not to mention be able to breathe without gasping for breath, drink a glass of water (WATER!) without getting heartburn, walk without stabbing pelvic pain, pee at more reasonable intervals than every 15-30 minutes, chase Emma around and play again.....you get the idea.

Again, to be continued....
