36 week status

I had my {dreaded} doctor appointment yesterday. Thank goodness everything went well and we just MIGHT get to meet this baby before his due date! Ok, wishful thinking, I know, but it may be in the cards.

First things first- he's dropped. I figured he'd dropped sometime within 34-36 weeks because I have to pee ALL THE TIME now, and I don't have problems breathing like before. Not to mention all the crazy contractions I've been having that keep me up literally almost all night long. She mentioned that he dropped quite a bit too.
Second- I'm dilated to about a 2.
And third- I'm 50% effaced.

I really wouldn't mind a Valentine's baby! Please keep that in mind, baby Gerber.

Your Mom is probably packing as I comment - also some good dates: Julie's BD is the 9th and your great grandma's (my Mom) is the l5th and, of course, mine is March 7th if you can hold on that long!!! Valentines Day is good too - a real sweetheart for you and Straton.

NO Grandma. I cannot wait that long. Don't get any ideas! I'll bribe my doctor if I have to, but this fella is coming out the 28th or sooner!
