10 Days and Counting

It is 10 days until my official due date, 9 if you are being accurate (the doctor missed it by a day). I am hoping the baby comes this week, mainly so he will be an Aries instead of a Taurus.
Assuming you somewhat believe astrology, people born under the Taurus sign are very stubborn and have tempers. I'm trying to avoid that.

At my weekly appointment last week I was dilated at all and the baby hasn't dropped (-2 Station). I know for sure that the baby still hasn't dropped any. I'm hoping for some progress at my next appointment this Thursday.

I am uncomfortable but its manageable. I have heartburn and I can't eat very much at once. I still pee every two hours during the night and its getting more difficult to get find a decent position to sit or sleep. On one hand, I want the baby to go ahead and get here. On the other, I'm terrified.

I will miss my belly once the baby comes. I think its so neat to have a living being in my belly that I can feel kick and hiccup.

I'll update after my next appointment. Sorry for the choppy thoughts.

I have three more weeks and the baby has dropped to 0 station. I am also 1 cm dilated and 50 percent effaced. It seems exciting, but then again the doctor said that I could still go to my due date. I am anxious too to see when my baby is coming! Let us know how your Thursday appointment goes!!

I just realized that I wrote Sandy (this is Sandra... I am due May 7th). I just wanted to make sure you knew it was me... my friends call me Sandy.
