Not Yet

Today I had my first exam where they check to see if I'm dilated at all. The doctor was surprised that the baby's head was down - it's still so far up she couldn't feel it yet (I can feel it on my legs when I sit!). She said I'm closed up tight and thick.

We talked about inductions a little. She said since I'm on a medication, they don't go past the due date. I guess with diabetes it typically gets worse during the last few weeks and since I'm already taking something for it they don't want to push it. She said if I'm still around at week 39 (I'm 37 now) we will schedule an induction for 2-3 days before my due date.

Baby here in 2 1/2 weeks MAX!

I also got a haircut today. It's amazing how a good haircut will make you feel a lot better about yourself. It doesn't hurt that I also LOST 5 pounds in the last 2 weeks and had a really good nap this afternoon. I'm feeling pretty good right now - good enough to eat a Reese's peanut butter cup!
