Dropped and Thinning!

I just came back from my appointment and the nurse said she could feel the baby's head and that my cervix is thinning. I know it really doesn't mean anything other than things are progressing as they should, but I can't help but be a liiiiiittle bit excited that our baby girl may be here sooner than we thought. :-) 

Anyone else have happy progress news? 

ETA: Holy cow, I'm a watermelon!!

Re: Dropped and Thinning!

  • Last week (end of 35 weeks) I was a finger tip dilated and cervix was soft! Can't wait to see if there is more progress on Fri! Here's to hoping for earlier rather then later!! :D

  • At my appointment today, my OB said I'm 2cm dilated and 75% effaced!  I've been on bed rest for 8 weeks, so we've known for a while that our son was going to arrive early.  I am just hoping he'll stay in until 37 weeks!

  • at 34 weeks I was closed for shop when the dr checked me (although that's not why he was down there) but since he was down in that area I had him check anyways.  I'm actually avoiding having the drs check b/c I really don't want this baby coming early.  We still have a lot of preparation to do and I am in denial that this kiddo could come early.

    DD was 4 days late, and while I know that's not SUPER late, I have always had in my mind that this baby will be late or right on time, too.  Anything different and I will be completely unprepared!

  • Oh my! How exciting!!

    I am way behind you, but I wonder if my OB will feel baby's head soon. She feels reaaaaally now and walking is painful because of pelvic floor pain.

  • At 33 weeks my cervix was soft and LO had dropped. Keeping my fingers crossed when I go to my appointment this week I am dilated.
