So disappointed..

Had weekly check up yesterday and no progress.... zero... zilch... and to put it in dr's words "closed up tight" I'll be 38 weeks tomorrow and I was really hoping for some sort of progress. To make matters worse, I'm swollen like a balloon today, my back is killing me, in a foul mood and on top of it everyone decides that today is a good day to tell me how pregnant I am. Really?? I know this.... I'm the one carrying it around! UGH! Even the bag boy at the supermarket decides to chime in and even goes as far as to ask if the days go by quick or they drag by. I just shot a look like what the hell does it matter to you?? Sorry.. mini vent over. I'm so over being pregnant.

    Cheer up.  Progress doesn't mean anything.  I haven't even had my doctor check because you could be 0 dilated and then go into labor the next day.  You could be 1cm for 3 weeks.  It doesn't mean that much.

    Trust me I sooo understand!! I was 1/2 dilated and 30 percent effaced at my 37 weeks appointment. The following week I had so much pain and different things that I was so sure I had made a ton of progress. But at 38 weeks I was just the same as the week before! The only difference is that all of the sudden I was measuring at 39 weeks. I was really disappointed. So I go for my term appointment on Monday but I am not getting my hopes up. I am beyond ready! The days do drag by and I keep having people ask me "so is it time" or "when you gonna have that baby!?!" like I have ANYTHING to do with it! I don't even smile at them anymore or try to make light of their annoying comment. I simply say shut the hell up! you will know when he is here! Everyone keeps saying it will be any day now! But the days keep on coming and still nothing!!
