We met the last doctor in the practice today, she was really nice. We also found out that I am 2" dilated and 60% effaced. I can't believe it, it has begun! Now, it is possible that I could go into labor soon, or it can be anywhere between 3-5 weeks before labor starts, so it may still be awhile. He hasn't dropped yet, so I think I've got some time. I guess I should make sure everything else is in order, just in case. Still need to find a local pediatrician in our neighborhood (one that is on our insurance and preferably speaks english) Talk about exciting!
We had our maternity photo session on Sunday at a private park in Forest Hills. It was absolutely beautiful. The photographer and his wife were really great to work with, and hopefully they got some good shots. I am looking forward to getting the proofs back in a couple of weeks. (Ideally before this little fella decides to come).
Many thanks to all the parents for my wonderful birthday gift and making it possible. It was exactly what I wanted. Thank you!!
Otherwise, we are just trying to survive this heat wave. It is so hot, humid and disgusting outside. I wish I had a pool or a lake to cool off in. Thankfully I do have air conditioning, and under direct orders have taken to staying in as much as possible this week. I was amazed at how quickly everything just swelled up this morning in the humidity. My poor feet. Will promptly put me in a cab and sent me home to take a nap after our appointment. I was very grateful.
Next on the docket, breast feeding class tomorrow. It should be interesting. I will keep you posted if anything exciting happens.
