Pregnant after 35

Sooner rather than later

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.

  • yay!  so exciting!!!
  • 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!!!

  • That sounds like the most wonderful appt ever. You find out you'll have your baby sooner rather than later AND you're told to eat more ice cream!?!?!?

  • Can I go to your OB??   Have fun and eat ice cream!
  • 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!

    I hope your LO gives you a little more time if you need it but how exciting you get to meet them so soon.
