Susie had a better night last night, falling asleep at 9 pm rather than 11. It was still party central in there for an hour or so…so we have a way to go. Her first words in the morning were “big girl bed!”
And I had my 39 week check-up today. 1-2 cm, 60-70% effaced. So essentially no progress since last week. The good thing is that I wouldn’t want to have the baby today because there’s no one close by to watch the kids if I go into labor–the friends we’d been planning on are sick, our back-up family is down to one car and Jesse has to work late all week, and our back-back-up option is the Pelttaris who live 75 minutes away! So at this point, I’m rationally hoping to wait until my mom gets here next week. (The irrational, crabby-with-being-pregnant part of me is struggling to accept this.)
