Dilated :D

So I went to the dr today expecting to still be closed up tight since I don't have any contractions or any signs of her coming but I am 1 cm dilated. YAY! The dr said my cervix is really thick still though but at least there is some progress. I saw a brand new dr today. It was his first day at the office but I liked him. He seemed nice but man it hurt when he checked me. OUCH. I was cramping for a while afterward but he said I would be.

I am going to start walking, walking, walking and try to be more progressed next appt which is Monday. I am also gonna bounce of my workout ball. They say it helps speed things up too. I hope she comes on her own before I would get induced but we will see.

Matthew is so excited and he says he is tired of waiting lol. It is so cute. I can't wait to see him as a daddy. He will be the best daddy! This week I think I will try to get everything all done just in case I progress fast, although I don't see that happening lol.

Just a quick update!

getting close.

Its hard to fathom that in just 3 1/2 weeks I will no longer just be me, but I will have a baby solely dependent on me and Matthew. WOAH. i cannot wait but it is kinda scary too. Matthew will be leaving for WLC when she is 2 weeks old so I believe I am going to go home to TN, which will be great to see everyone but also crazy bc obviously none of her stuff is there. But I will handle it more when the time comes. I go to the dr on Monday and I start getting checked for dialation. I doubt I have done anything but it would be nice if I had :D

I am so uncomfortable now. The pubic bone/pelvis pain is INSANE! I actually cried the other night bc I couldn't move. Oh man, I felt like a wimp but I am still determined to do this naturally. I know my body was made to handle it so it will be okay as long as it's not medically necessary for me to have meds. I hate even taking tylenol so I def don't want pain meds!

I have tried to do more walking this week and hopefully matthew will go walking with me tonight so I can start progressing! I have started making bows, and trying to learn to sew and I am exciting to see her in her little outfits with her bows!

Okay enough rambling, I have to get this house clean. AHHH overwhelming to think it has to be baby proof haha.

5 more weeks :D

So in 5 more weeks I should have my baby girl here! If she doesn't come on her own by Aug 18th then I should be induced that day so that Matt can have 2 full weeks with her before he goes to WLC for 3 weeks. Stupid army has to take him away but I know I will be okay. I am so anxious to get to meet this little one who has taken over my insides haha. I finally finished her room and got everything set up yesterday and its so cute :D

My mom and brother are visiting this week and its nice to have family around! We went shopping today and bought me a sewing machine and I'm gonna learn how to make Kynlee some outfits and blankets. woohoo. I am going to try to learn how to make bows too! yay! Tomorrow and Thursday we are going to tour D.C. and I think it's going to be fun! :)

At my next dr appt they start checking for dialation. its getting close. So exciting :D
