2 more weeks to go!

At my last doctor's appointment I was dilated to a one, and effaced 75%.
Dilation is the process of the cervix opening in preparation for childbirth.
Dilation is measured in centimeters.
Effacement is the process by which the cervix gradually softens, shortens, and becomes thinner.
If you make your hand into a fist think of it slowly opening up, and slowly becoming thinner that is what the cervix does.
The baby is about 6.5 lbs.
My next doctors appointment is on Friday.
Then I should only have one more after that. :)
