Not feeling so gross today, but also probably not going to deliver any time in the immediate future . . . The doctor said I had dilated about 1 cm, though. I guess that's better than nothing. They have these paper measuring tapes to check the 'fundus', and the measuring tape only goes to 40, and it ran out before it got to the top of my belly!! Then, after about 20 questions about when my last period was, (um, 9 months ago, genius . . . ) and a lot of probing on the belly, he said, "looks like he might be a . . . good size baby." I liked his choice of wording, but I could tell he wanted to say "incredibly HUGE baby" And for those of you who don't mind TMI --- I did loose the mucus plug this morning. That can be a sign of labor starting. But the contractions are very irregular. One or 2 will be pretty strong, then I barely feel them for the next hour or so. So, we will just wait for our "good size" boy to be ready.
