\"3cm_pic\"I went to the OBGYN today for my regularly scheduled weekly checkups and lo and behold did I get some good news today! \u00a0The midwife confirmed that I am currently walking around at 3 cm dilated! \u00a0(Plus, I also lost another half pound on the scales, which always puts a smile on my face!) \u00a0Of course, the midwife did remind me that I could continue to walk around for up to a week at 3cm dilated, but in my heart, I know that I won’t. \u00a0With this encouraging news of this dilation, we went ahead and finished all our packing and leaving instruction notes for grandma to hold down the fort whenever it’s time to rush to the hospital.<\/p>\n

We are very excited that our little girl will be here soon! \u00a0We will do our best to keep you guys in the loop on a moment to moment basis. \u00a0And if we don’t, it’s only because Greg couldn’t get a wireless signal to upload. \u00a0Trust me, that would be the only reason!\u00a0<\/p>\n

Thank you for all prayers and well wishes that you left for me on this website and on my Facebook page. \u00a0You guys are awesome and it’s been so much fun sharing this experience with all of you.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
