Our little watermelon is now considered full-term. I was in such a hurry for her to get here but I have a little more peace about waiting it out until my due date (or even later) if she so desires...like I have any control, anyway! I'm trying to concentrate on the importance of her growing healthy and strong and not so much on the discomfort I am feeling. The good news: all those painful contractions I've been having are working toward delivery. I was a centimeter dilated and 50% effaced at my appointment today. It's exciting to think that I am moving forward now.
Her car seat is installed and the hospital bags are packed. It's weird to think that one minute things will be normal and the next I will be in labor. Even weirder that I have no clue when it's going to happen! This is a difficult concept for a control freak like me. My hope for the next 3-5 weeks (*as I'm grimacing at the thought of being 2 weeks overdue) is to just accept and be at peace with whatever happens. Anything's possible...
