Yep, we're at 3 centimeters dilation folks. After a significant weight gain last visit due to swelling, I hadn't gained anything this week. Last week I also wasn't dilated at all. I did test positive for group B strep, so I'll have to be treated during birth for it, but Dr. Sams said it's normal and no big deal. No worries. At this point Hayden could come and I wouldn't be stopped. Dr. Sams said I should go into labor on my own and he expects the birth to be pretty easy since this whole pregnancy has been so smooth. Guess we'll see. I don't feel any anxiety or worry about the process, and I'm trusting God for the timing. The dr. won't let me go past my due date, but I don't foresee Hayden coming tonight or tomorrow. Then again, I'm not God. I really believe Hayden is long--either that, or he's really stretched out. Dr. Sams could feel Hayden sitting down low, but he hasn't dropped yet. I'm so ready to meet baby boy, but a couple more weeks of him hanging out inside would be wonderful!
I'm so excited!! I can't wait to see his little face!
ReplyDeleteI was just thinking of you earlier today, and am so glad you posted! You are so right. Hayden will arrive in God's time. Can't wait to meet the little guy! ;)
ReplyDeleteGlad to know you are doing well. And I hope things are going smoothly for you as you continue preparations for maternity leave. If I can help you in anyway, please don't hesitate to call on me.
Best Wishes,
Amy
Yay! Hayden's arrival is close. I hope ya'll have a great Easter! Get as much sleep as possible- you'll be so glad you did when he arrives. =c)
ReplyDeleteP.S. I had the Group B strep too and had absolutely no problems with Abby. It is pretty common.
It's getting close!!! Congrats! I can't believe you're that calm..I was so anxious I was begging the Dr. to put me in because I was scared of having the baby at home.
ReplyDeleteDon't worry about the Group B strep I had it with Austin and it's not a big deal.
Rest up my friend you're going to need it!! :)
