Two weeks left!

Ok, it's more like 2 weeks, 2 days, but whatever. Last night I had a doctor appointment, and he said I am dilated 1.5 centimeters, and 50% effaced. The baby is head-down, but once again facing the wrong way, which explains the weird stabbing pains and really bad back pain and inability to walk at all normally. A couple weeks ago they told me she was facing backwards (facing my belly button), so I did a bunch of back exercises, and she successfully rotated. But then I stopped doing the exercices, and she flipped back. Now that she is really low, it might be too hard to flip her back. Drats.

Last week they estimated her weight, and put her at 6lbs, 10 oz. If she gains just under 1/2 lb per week for the next 3 weeks, that would put her at about 8.5 lbs on her due date. I would be thrilled with such a petite baby after my last two!

Anyway, feeling very anxious and ready for this to progress to the next step. :)
