38 weeks & waiting...January!!!

Hey mommies. I know my january mommies are too excited that you'll be meeting your little one's soon. I'm currently 38+1 4cm dilated and 100% effaced. Literally any day now. How are y'all doing?

Liz: my doctor told me that walking helps more with effacement than dilation. Maybe try a nice walk with squats.

Msdominguez: I know exactly how you feel. Lol.

Jaymumma: you are definitely carrying a big load. I know you can't wait till you cross the finish line.

37 and 4 over here! Only 1 cm and no effacement unfortunately. I guess she's gonna take her time lol. But I had an ultrasound yesterday and she's 6.5 pounds, so hopefully she's gonna decide to come soon! I can't wait to meet her. :)
