  • Mirrors are not my friends!  Sometimes I'll pass a mirror and get a sideways glance at myself and I'll need to do a double take.  Like: serious?!?  Is that really what I look like?!?  Crazy.
  • Symptoms are all getting more severe, but no major contractions yet.
  • Congestion is killing me, so I sleep propped up with a humidifier as close to my face as I can get it.  Ha!
  • Braxton hicks are getting pretty serious though.

  • Risa says I'm 1.5cm dilated, 85% effaced, cervix right up front, and ready to rock.  We shall see...
  • Apparently the baby is almost 7 lbs this week (according to baby center, not any ultrasound cause I haven't done any since the anatomy scan and don't plan to), over 19.5", and a leek.
  • Send me labor love!  I'm seriously needing it.
