Anytime now, baby, anytime...

I had my 36 week check up today. Thirty six weeks is the magical number at which the lungs are deemed done and baby can typically be born without any concerns. So, come on baby boy, anytime now.

I am 80% thinned out (effaced) and 1 cm dilated. The dilatation means pretty much nothing at only 1, but the effacement isn't bad. Last week I was just barely effaced with no dilation. Baby's head is VERY low, which is pushing on my hips and popping them out of joint from the inside. Very painful, and at times I literally cannot walk. I also now have pregnancy induced carpal tunnel, so much of the time I cannot feel from my wrist down.

Well, it is hard to type with numb fingers and this is all I have to report. Let's hope that baby boy comes sooner than later... please...
