I went to the Dr. today and had my first internal exam. I am 1 cm dilated and my cervix is soft but not effaced. She seems to think I will deliver in about 2- 2 1/2 weeks . I am both nervous and excited. I thought I had at least 4 weeks left.
She also told me to eat more ice cream.

OMG - I LOVE your doctor!
Wow - internal already? I had my 36 week appt. last week and they didn't do one....I imagine I'll have my first at my appt. this week (and - unfortunately - with the one doctor in the practice I don't care for...bleh).
How exciting that you're starting to make some progress in the right direction!!!
I like that, you're making progress and need to eat more ice cream.
Niiice!

Any time a doctor tells you to eat more ice cream: LISTEN! LOL.
Glad it went well.

Wow! I'm going out on a limb to predict you'll go before me now!
I just had my first internal this week and nothing's brewing down there at all... and I'm just over 2 weeks until due date!
mmmmmm ice cream. Sounds like you have a fabulous OB.
I hope your LO gives you a little more time if you need it but how exciting you get to meet them so soon.
