Well, I sit here at 39.5 weeks pregnant, wondering when our new little one will decide to enter the world! I was 1 cm dilated at my doctor appointment yesterday, so we just wait and see at this point. I've been having LOTS of Braxton Hicks contractions (false labor). These contractions don't really hurt, but they're very uncomfortable, with a lot of pressure. Unfortunately these kinds of contractions do nothing to help dilate the cervix, they're just "practice contractions" for the uterus to get ready for the real ones...*sigh...I have another appointment scheduled next week on Friday, and if she hasn't come by then, then we'll schedule an induction. I'm hoping that she'll come before then, but I'm trusting in God's perfect timing in it all, and trying to remember that I have no control over it!
I thought it would be fun to put all my belly progression pictures together to see how my belly has grown over the last 40 weeks...
