36 Weeks

Well, today we went to the doctor for my weekly visit. Dr. Breniman said I was dilated at 1.5 cm and 50% effaced! I know that I can stay like this for several more weeks, but it was a good sign that I am at least progressing. My ankles and feet are pretty swollen, but he said it was just a normal pregnancy thing - I just need to drink more water and watch the salt. I'm feeling pretty big, but we're excited - Jackson will be here in a few weeks. . .

Oh my gosh!!! Great news! I go to the Dr. today, and I can only hope for such good news! Hope you are feeling good and sleeping better than me... It is 2:32am right now and I can't go back to sleep.

YEAH! Melissa you are doing great with your progression and you look adorable. It's funny that we don't see each other more being that we work so close together. I learn more about you on here, so please keep us updated!!
