Oh my goodness, fear is really setting in. Excitement is as well, but the fear of labor is overwhelming.

My Doctor said that I have dialated 1 cm and that these little cramps I am having are small contractions...needless to say, reality has definitely set in.  I mean, can I do this and not act a fool while in labor?

How long do I have? I am due in 3 weeks but the Dr. says the baby is very big and weighs about 71/2 pounds already, and he does not think I will go all the way till August.  So what does that mean? I just dont know what to expect, or when to expect it...I mean I know what is going to happen, but when?  And how do I maintain some composer?

I am babbling, but I am totally tripping!
