Less Than One Week Left!

Wow, I made 39 weeks yesterday, and didn't really even notice.  Oh, I feel it in my groinal area and many other areas of my body, don't you worry, I definitely notice that I'm pregnant.  Very pregnant.  I'm just saying I didn't realize it was Tuesday and a new week was upon us.  I just looked at the ticker thingy I have at the top of the blog, and the baby is pretty much covering up the sun, and it says "Only 6 days to go!"  Weird.  We're counting down in days now, not weeks.

I had an OB appointment on Monday, Dr. said everything looks good as usual.  Results of the exam: about 50% effaced (she wrote 25% in the chart, though), and 1cm dilated (she could put her finger in and touched Kaila's head.. how weird is that?!).  She also said that if I don't go into labor by my next appointment, we would discuss inducing.  I don't know the exact date I'll be induced, but it means we'll have a baby in roughly a week.  That's right, our own little mini human in one week.  Grasping this concept has been very hard for me lately.  I've been pregnant for 9 months, now.. you'd think I would have firmly wrapped my head around the idea by now.  But alas, I think it'll take hearing her cry (it always makes me cry when I hear the baby cry for the first time on A Baby Story on Lifetime, and those are complete strangers!!  I'll be a mess when my own little lump starts crying..) or holding her in my arms to fully succumb to the reality.
