Had my bloody show! Anyone else?

I'm 36 weeks today, had my bloody show Saturday and found out I'm 1.5 cm dilated, 70% effaced, and baby's head is engaged. Getting more excited even though I know it might not mean much. Anyone else's bodies preparing for labor already?

I know my body is getting ready and so is my little man. I'm 34+2 and I just have that gut feeling that he will be here by 36 weeks. The only thing that has me a little stressed right now is that my ob is going on vacation next week for 2 weeks, so I might have to deliver with a total stranger in the room. But, oh well. If my baby boy is ready then all that matters is that everything turns out great and he is healthy. Good luck ladies and God bless!

I'm 32 weeks and I can feel my uterus starting to contract. I have a appointment Wednesday so I'll have to see what my doctor says but I'm excited only 8 more weeks to go until I meet my little guy:)))
