35 week appointment

I'm super annoyed that I've gained 9lbs in 2 weeks. But making progress, now 2cm 70%effaced and baby at -1 station. My doctor was just glad I survived another week lol. This has been a hectic process every since 22 weeks with preterm contractions so at this rate I'm grateful for each week I complete. I had my first preterm so I'm just interested to see how long this little guy will cook beige he decides to make his entrance.

I hope it's just water. I hope to have my weight down by the end of the summer as well *fingers crossed*

I had so much amniotic fluid, I was up 37 lbs in 8 months. Peed out 7 lbs in 6 days and now I'm 38 1/2 weeks with 31 total lbs gained. I feel bloated more than anything, but can't wait to give birth and lose all the extra water weight. I'm hoping I'm back in shape by the end of Summer. Don't worry about the weight if you're not eating too much. It's likely just water.

I been at 1 cm since 31 weeks, now I'm at 2.  With my first I started at 1cm around 30 weeks and delivered at 36 so I'm paranoid this time

I'm 37weeks and was 1cm for a whole month. Then fiance and I became more intimate to soften cervix and I'm now 2cm, baby is in labor position & mucus plug is coming out. I'm just gonna keep walking/ being intimate until baby is ready. Could be delivered in May after all
