Time Crunch

Craporama. I had the first of my weeky appointments today. That is scarey enough itself (and highly uncomfortable), but she said that I am about 2 cm dialated and 75% effaced. She wagered a guess that I would not make it to my due date. I hope she is wrong! I know that being dialated doesn't mean much because you can be dialated for weeks before you go into labor. But just her talking about me going early freaked me out. I was hoping she would come a little late! I need to establish my living situation, write 3 papers, get winter guard started, finish up stuff at work etc. etc. etc. I realized that God and Mother Nature don't really have much concern for my schedule, I just know that I was already stressed out enough thinking that she would be coming in about 4 weeks. The thought of her coming in like 2??? That's way less time for me to get a better handle on things. Pray.

Praying for you. I'll leave you with a quote from my friend who just delivered this morning (yay!). This was her response when I asked her how she was doing two weeks ago:

"I am actually feeling better this week than I have for a while. This means I am now not saying 'I am so tired of feeling like a big pregnant bus' but instead 'This pregnancy thing might be okay for a while longer since I am a little scared of bringing such a tiny person home'."

How true it is.
