Countdown!

I had my 36 week appointment today and guess what...I'm 1 cm dilated! The countdown begins! I know that one can remain dilated for weeks, so I'm not worried about delivering this early, but I can't help but be excited. I had all kinds of Braxton-Hicks contractions today and thought about packing my bags, but they went away after about an hour. Andrew arrived 8 days early and I'm a little nervous that Mia may follow his example. It's my hope that Mia stays right where she is until Dec 10th or 11th - that way my Mom will be here for the delivery. So, everyone keep your fingers crossed!

Wow! It will be interesting to see when she makes her appearance. I remember with Bryce I went to the Doctor around 38 weeks and was 1 cm dialated and I went into labor that night. In contrast, with the twins I was walking around 4 cm dialated for weeks and ended up being induced! Just stay close to home! LOL. Good luck, our prayers and thoughts are with you!

Sorry, Pam. I had Mia on Dec 8th and I just haven't had the time to get on-line. I will try to do a big posting tomorrow.
