Dr. Appointment #12

I just got back from the doctor and it was a good visit. I am still only 1 cm dilated, but getting close to 2 cm. Dr. McGrew said he can definitely feel the baby’s head and he/she is in a good position. The good news is that since last Friday my uterus has started to thin which is an important part of the process. For Baby Beyer to arrive three things need to happen: 1) Dilation, 2) Uterus thinning 3) Baby’s head down. We have two of three going on which is good. Dr. McGrew said that at my visit next Friday (assuming the baby does not come before then) that depending on how much I have dilated they could admit me since I will be full term, but we will wait and see how the next seven days go…who knows Baby Beyer could surprise us all and be here sooner! Both mine and the baby’s vitals continue to be strong and healthy so at this point we are just waiting for he/she to be ready to make their grand entrance.
