Had my 36-week check-up this morning. Dr. D checked me and found that I am 60% effaced, but no dilation yet. I am just so glad to hear that we have some progress and my cervix isn't going to hold out like Fort Knox (knock on wood!). Elfie's head is low, but not engaged in the pelvis yet. I'm just hoping he stays head down! BH contractions are also definitely increasing in frequency and intensity. Yay!
My energy level seems to have increased in the past few days...but maybe it's because I have a new determination to get the house clean and be as physically active as I can! I mowed the lawn yesterday, and surprisingly did just fine with it. I thought it would wipe me out, but I felt great the rest of the day! This is such a wonderful feeling...maybe I truly CAN enjoy my pregnancy for these last final weeks!!!
I'm glad you're feeling well enough to mow the lawn! It's been SOOO hot here that my husband hasn't let me do anything outside, which is a bummer. And I haven't gotten the nesting instinct which I was hoping for.
ReplyDeleteGood to hear that your cervix is starting to change and prepare for baby!!! You are almost there.
