I knowwwwwwwwwwwwww.

Faith had her twin twinkies last week, but she posts very infrequently (sad face) and we haven't seen pics yet.

FOUR of us should go down this week, but we're all shut up tight like clams down there I guess .

Ohh- I'm all of 1cm dilated... and I have been for 2 weeks....

We tried an "old wives tale" yesterday; I can't call it BMS - can I call it WML (wild monkey lovin"? ok it was not that wild maybe timid monkey lovin'?)... so far no change... I was hopeful. This is the first time in 38 weeks I'm considering doing that on back to back days... It's not that I feel extra sexy- I'm just ready to move on to the next part of this adventure.

And on a funny note, I was teasing DH, when after SeaMonkey is born and we are healed etc, how long it would be until we could have like "Hotel lovin" (why does it always seem to be better in a hotel????). He says we don't need to wait cuz he heard that hospital "lovin" is better than hotel "lovin." Oh, that DH is a funny little man....

At my 35w2d appt. I was very soft and a fingertip dialated. I'm supposed to be checked again on Wednesday. I think I may have him skip it. Why bother? Last time I walked around dialated to a 3 and 100% effaced for 2 weeks. Just made me frustrated. This time I think I would rather not know. You know, the ignorance is bliss philosophy??

DH is convinced this baby is coming next week (he's predicting the 17th-21st date range). I've been here and done this before and there is nothing in me that thinks this baby is coming next week....I'm still too comfortable to be that close to giving birth!

DH needs to be sure to make his "deposit." It naturally softens the cervix. Also, you have to be sure to enjoy it, if you kwim!

Nothing happening here either! Bet it all happens at once later in the week! Man, I could've been in hospital AC today.

I am 1 cm. dilated and the dr. just told me I was "very very soft"...whatever that means. That was as of last Friday. My next (and last appt. before C-sect) will be this Friday morning.

Still having A LOT of braxton hicks contractions.

I just got done with scrubbing (on my hands and knees) and stairs and entry way with soapy water. However, I did this with DD #2...and nothing happened.

But, if nothing happens soon...I'll definatley be holding Brooklyn next Friday the 21st! I cannot wait!!!!
