Okay, so I now weigh 170 lbs. A total gain of 25lbs thusfar.

Boss heart rate was around 130 beats per minute. I am still only 1/2 cm dialated... WOW. No progress in 3 weeks! I am now 38 weeks and 2 days pregnant.

Dr. Paoloni had me schedule my next 2 apts [Oct 6th & Oct 13th-1 day after my due date]. He said if I haven't had the baby by then we will have to schedule a day for me to have him... WOW. I can't believe that 2 weeks from now seems so FAR away..

It seems like just YESTERDAY I found out I was pregnant... And it felt like ages until I would find out if I was having a boy or girl. And now, it's all in the past!!

LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOVE, ME =]

So cool!  Are you being as active as it is comfortable?  That helped me dilate totally!  I had my little guy at 38 weeks and was dilated 4 cm before I hit that day!  I was a very active person though.  I walked (waddled) every day!  Climbing stairs or small hikes.  Be safe and stay close to a phone though!  :)

The other thing is "the list"!  Have you checked all the "to do" stuff off your list?  As soon as I finished that, I swear, I relaxed enough and I went into labor!  It was pretty cool.  Good luck.  The time from now until then will take forever!  I remember that well.  Congrats on the new baby!  Keep us posted!
