I had an NST and growth ultrasound today and got a cervical check. NST went well...it wasn't her normal active time so it took longer for her to pass but she did just fine in the allotted time. Ultrasound was great as well...it was hard to see anything exciting because she is so cramped and facing my back...which is actually a good thing so I don't get back labor! She is in the 50th % for size so perfect. I was worried a little because she went from 75% at 27w to 65% at 32w and now 50% so her growth has slowed some but it is so close to the end that they aren't worried about her being too small and 50% is still great.
Then came the cervical check...yep ladies I am still only 3cm and long!  I guess all those contractions didn't really matter after all. I have a feeling it will be a few more weeks. I am ok with that. I did get excited thinking she would come early and I am so anxious to meet her but I know she will be here when she is ready. I get to enjoy her all to myself for a few more weeks.  The contractions are pretty random now anyway and aren't constant like they were so I think it was just practice.
So not an exciting update but not bad either. She is doing well and that is all that matters.
Here is my 36w belly pic from today!

Sounds like everything is right on track! 
I wouldn't put too much stock in how soon/late you'll go in regards to how dilated & effaced you are. I was 1cm dilated at my 39 week appt. 2 days later, my water broke. So you just never know!
