This really could mean a couple things. Further along in this pregnancy than the last – woo hoo! But really I’m thinking further along at 36 weeks than we were with my first!
You go in there, wondering if they will do the dreaded yet desired internal. I mean, who doesn’t want to know what is going on down there, if anything? But then, who really wants to get poked and prodded down there? I suppose when your midwife is telling you about how the butt of the baby might be in the wrong position and whoops…(Oh yeah, you guessed it!) you can’t even care because you are so amused by that story!
1 centimeter. This is farther (further?) than we were last time at 36 weeks! Now I’m not naive enough to think I may not stay here for the next 4 weeks but a girl can wish, can’t she? I’m not even sure that sentence made sense but I can’t even pretend like I’m going to try and fix it right now. By next week I’ll be asking about all those tricks we know to get things moving! Maybe. Okay probably 😉
I can’t believe your new little one will be here soon! Avery was born at 37 weeks (induced) and it was so unexpected. My hubby and I thought we had at least 3 more weeks to get ready. We had a lot of her stuff set up and ready but it was still a holy s@#% moment. 😉
I do always say this baby can come anytime but if it did, truly would be a holy $h!t moment!!
It’s really happening now…keep us posted! Thinking of you xxx
Thank you! It is hard to believe it is almost time. 🙂
