Well, not much has changed in the last week but here are the new stats:
I gained 0 lbs over the past week (total pregnancy gain 13 lbs)
Blood pressure is good
Heart rate was 140s
Measuring right on for 37 weeks (~34.5 cm)
The baby is definitely in the head-down position
Cervix: closed yet somewhat soft
Station: +1
I am uncertain as to the correctness of the station. I didn’t really think you could be that far along but not dilated or effaced at all. I am in the process of researching this, but it may be possible. I’m certain I heard the doctor right because I repeated it back to her and she nodded her head in agreement. Regardless, she said the baby’s head was ‘engaged’. So, that’s what I was told. People at work have been commenting about how it looks like the baby has dropped some, so…
Basically, I think Emily could come at any time. I just have to actually start labor first
But who knows, I could be 0cm today and 4cm tomorrow. We’ll just have to wait and see.
Stay tuned for next week’s update
Oh, and congratulations to Misty and Stephen on the birth of their daughter Liza. Welcome Liza!

Good to know you’re doing well! Time to start eating all the crazy stuff that is supposed to induce labor, spicy foods, beets, fresh pineapple etc… Becky swears that it was the fresh pineapple that worked for her!
