Hey ladies,

So I just got back from my 37 week appointment. It went well. Gained a pound and BP was 130/80 and urine was good. Last week I was a fingertip/1cm dilated and 50% effaced and still high. Well this week I am a full 2CM pushing 3CM 100% effaced and he has dropped and is very low. She could feel his hair!

So anytime now for us! I made an appointment for next week, but she said she wouldnt be surprised if we didnt make it to that appointment. I was told to enjoy our last week of not being parents! haha I asked if she thought we would make our due date and she said with the progress I made maybe, but in her mind its highly unlikely. She said she is going 50/50 on within a week from now to for sure the next week. OMG its real now! haha

You just wait though I will be one of those ladies that walks around like this for the next 3 weeks! haha
Maybe the Red Raspberry Leaf Tea works??? I started drinking it Wed. of last week and now Wed. of this week I have made major progress! haha Just a thought!

So excited for you...but I'll warn you, I was 3cm and 80% effaced at 37 weeks, and he didnt decide to get out till 40 weeks

that's great progress!! I was the same way as you....3cm at 37 weeks and 4-5 at 38 weeks....I was induced that day so I don't know how long I would have made it but I highly doubt another week!!

Really hope this is the last week for you

Sleep as much as you can!!!!

Wow! You're getting so close. Also like the ladies I was at 3cm for weeks before I delivered (I think I got there around 34 weeks and didn't deliver until 38 almost 39).
