Ok... Now I'm starting to get nervous...

So I went to the doctor on last Monday, May 17, and he said that I was not dilated at all and that I was only 50% effaced. That gave me a little bit of comfort as I have started to get extremely nervous. Well, Wednesday, May 26, I went back to the doctor and in only a week I have dilated to a 2 and I am 80% effaced... That makes me a little nervous. As I was leaving, he said, "See you back in another week.... or sooner." OR SOONER!!! That isn't comforting my nerves at all. He did say that she was head down and everything was looking good. That helped a little but I am starting to get Braxton Hicks contractions that are becoming stronger. We will see how soon she wants to make her little appearance in the world!

    You can do it! Effacing and getting dilation done early makes it better for when you are in "real" labor. By the way, be careful, those might not be Braxton Hicks contractions. Love ya! It will be OK. Call if you need something and your mom is in Utah, I can come in a dash.
