Ch-ch-ch-ch-Changes (not)
I had my OB appointment this afternoon and as I suspected before going, there were no changes since Friday. This is good news!
I am a loose 1 cm dilated and about 70 percent effaced. I realize this could all chnage in a nanosecond and my water could break, but I feel pretty confident saying I think I will make it through this week without pushing a baby out of my crotch.
We even walked about two miles yesterday when we took Jack to the zoo and it didn't cause a single serious contraction. Incompetent? Hell no. I think my cervix is shedding it's label and rehabbing its image with a media consultant. And don't think I wouldn't post a picture of it if I could. I just can't figure out how to get a good shot of it.
About that trip to the zoo. You see, we are having some bizarre weather phenomenon here in Chicago right now. Yesterday it was 61 degrees, yes on Jan. 6, and today we have already hit 65. We went to the park and the zoo yesterday and we stopped at the park again this morning and hope to squeeze in an afternoon trip before it starts to storm. I know it will not last after tomorrow, but my gosh, it's delightful to be outside and let the child run around, burn off some energy and actually get some fresh air in his lungs. We have the windows in the house open right now -- this is crazy.
So Babywatch 2008 continues, albeit in a rather boring format. Josh will be going to the office tomorrow, that would be two hours away, which will ensure I go into full-out labor just as he arrives so he can turn around and drive right back again with me calling him every 30 seconds to ask if he is here yet. Don't you wish you were him?
