Fellow February Mommies To Be....
Just got home from my 35w4d appt. Mentioned to Doctor that I've been feeling so much more pressure down below lately - so she did an internal exam and said "oh, your cervix is starting to thin and you're 1cm dilated".
All I could think was "oh god, this is really going to happen...." Hearing those words just made this whole preggo/labor thing so much more REAL.
Anyone else have this moment of clairity yet?

Re: Fellow February Mommies To Be....
I KNOW!!!!!!
I was at the pizzeria yesterday, and someone asked me what my EDD was, and I was like... Oh it's Feb 18th...
Their eyes opened wide, and they were like - U ARE DUE NEXT MONTH?!??!?!!!!!!
That's when it hit me!

I'm due on February 14th and I'm feeling the same thing. I have an appointment today.........it's becoming more real lately siince everyone notices that I got bigger over the week I had off.
I had DS at 37 weeks (all was fine, he was 7 12 lbs and 20 inches) so be prepared.

Re: Fellow February Mommies To Be....
I've been getting "that pressure" for a week now and my appointment isn't until the 15th.
Sometimes I can't believe that this time last year I was going to a fertility specialist and the possibility of me not being able to have kids was my reality. Now..six weeks to go until he's here!!

OMG are you serious?!?! I've had sooooooo much pressure down there that I swear that this kid is going to fall out when I walk but I just assumed it was normal.
Congrats to you - maybe you'll be a January mommy instead

Yay! That is so exciting! Leeners, maybe you'll find out something similar at your next appointment! I can't believe I have 6wks left.

Re: Fellow February Mommies To Be....
Bumping this post for updates...
I just went for my first internal today. Not so bad. Just like a regular exam.
I have not start to dilate yet but she did say that the baby was in a good position and definately low so that can account for all the pressure I feel. I go back next week, so hopefully Ill have some progress by then. Im 36W2D.

Re: Fellow February Mommies To Be....
I am so excited for this it's ridiculous..... When I was at L&D this week, the nurse did an internal, and she told me that I was thinning and she felt DD's head....
I am so ready for this baby to be here!!!!!!!

Re: Fellow February Mommies To Be....
I went for my 37 week appt last night and I'm one cmm dialated.
When the dr said that and that she also feels the head, I thought that dh was going to pass out!! He's like "so, this is it?", and the dr. and I looked at each other, smiled and she just told him that we could be like that for a while, not to worry. He came home to make sure my hospital bag was packed..which it's not.
This will be a long three weeks for me.

Re: Fellow February Mommies To Be....
I had the moment of clarity to weeks ago when I had my first internal at 35 weeks and was already dilated 2-3 cm. I hadn't even packed my bag yet. I went home and did it that night

Re: Fellow February Mommies To Be....
At my 37 week appt on Friday I was a fingertip dilated and 70% effaced. The head is nice and low.
I have 13 days until my due date. I think I need to pack my bags!
It's coming soon!
