37 weeks 5 days... pregnant....

and i have a child who refuses to live anywhere else but under my right rib cage.

I have been one cm dialated and 80% effaced for over a week and half and secretly fear that I will be 1 and 80 for the next weeks.

Maybe this is gross stuff that you aren't supposed to talk about outloud, but I often find myself compelled to tell anyone who will listen. I know that most women are okay and even excited to hear about how thin my cervix is, but even some men are excited to hear about it.

So yes, I am super "thinned" out, doc doesn't care much just says "congrats on getting the hard work over early" - Hard work, I think, how about the other 9cm I have to go.... that's prob won't be too easy.

My husband is convinced that this baby will come early, I think that is just in spite of the fact that I still have one more event to get through next Wednesday. Made it through the biggest of the 3 events that I've had last night. Awana awards night. It was a success I think. And mostly because of my super cool husband.

Thursday is cleaning day for me. It has also been a work at home day for the last 3 weeks as I had to make an effort to start staying at home at least one day a week.
