I'm officially full term! A few days ago at my (now weekly) doctor's appointments, I was dilated to 1 cm. Now, this means very little in terms of timing, because my doctor said she's seen women who aren't at all dilated deliver less than 48 hours later and others be dilated to 4 cm for almost a month! Still, it's a sign that my body is preparing a way to get this baby out eventually.
Eric and I are headed to Chicago in just a few hours for the weekend. We're hoping to enjoy one last getaway weekend while we're still childless. It should be fun, and we've got a few things planned, but mostly we're just looking to relax! The grandmothers-to-be are a little worried that I'll go into labor on this trip, but even if that were to happen, Chicago has wonderful hospitals. ;-)
As soon as we get back, Eric said he's going to be putting a plan into action to get the kiddo to come early - he really wants to have as much time as possible before going back to school in January, but who knows if she'll cooperate. We'll have to wait and see...
