Today I had my 36 week checkup at the doctor. I was a little nervous going in as this was the first appointment where I got "checked". I think I was nervous for whatever the doctor said... whether there was no progress or lots of it because we are so excited about his arrival.
The good news is that he is head down (and it's a very slim chance that he will change his position now), I am 1cm dilated, and 50% effaced. The doctor said this is a great start. At least I know my body is doing what it should be doing at this point.
It is also crazy that I now go to the doctor every week, that really means this pregnancy is winding down. Not that I am sad about that.... I am ready to have him here and not be pregnant anymore. I have had a pretty great pregnancy to this point and cannot really complain but I am ready to be able to sleep, breathe, and wear normal cute clothes again.
Tomorrow night we have our last baby prep class --- infant CPR which we are both looking forward to learning but praying we never have to use. Friday I have the last baby shower at work and then Josh and I will go out and buy the few "must have" items that we do not yet have. I am looking forward to Saturday when I will get the car seat installed at the fire station and get a much needed hour and a half massage that Josh got me for my birthday.
