Today was my 39 week appointment and Corey has taken leave the rest of the week, so he was able to go with me! I am now 2 cm dilated and 80% effaced. Also, Parker has moved down a little lower into my pelvis (-1 station for those of you who know what that means) and is fully in the right position. Captain Foster (my USAF midwife) did cervical stripping and estimates that Parker will weigh around 8 lbs!!! I felt cramps and low back pain all morning and I was hoping that I would go into labor. Corey and I went out to breakfast and then took a nap in anticipation of Parker's arrival, but when I woke up, I felt fine.
We walked 2 miles this morning before my appointment, but I think we are headed on another walk in a little bit. We leave for Japan 7 weeks from tomorrow, so it would be nice if Parker could stick to the itinerary :)
Think labor thoughts, please!
