38 weeks

Last night I started feeling like you were dropping, getting lower into my pelvic region, preparring for birth. And I was having some cramp-like feelings, which could be the Braxton-Hicks (practice) contractions that people talk about. Went to the doctor this morning and he said that I have a 50/50 chance that I will be at my next appointment, which is next Monday, meaning that he thinks there's a pretty good chance you will arrive before then! Then I pressed him and said, come on, make it 60/40 and he said that if he had to put money on it, he would bet that I will go into labor sometime this week. Very exciting. Shortly after that I learned that the car seat we have is defective, so they had to order a new one, which will be here by the earliest on Thursday...and since we cannot leave the hospital without a car seat, this may be cutting it quite close. Other than that, we are ready and preparred for your arrival and cannot wait to meet you!
