Still pregnant…I cannot be pregnant forever…I cannot be pregnant forever…this has become my mantra the past few weeks. I have never been overdue. My first pregnanct ended at 39 weeks 6 days and my second at 38 weeks. So I had my midwifes appt at 5:30 Las Vegas time today (6:30 AZ time) we arrived over half an hour early but she has a great waiting room with toys and a TV so we went in. Well luck had it her 5 oclock was late so we quickly did my appointment. She checked me and I was 3cms 80% effaced and a +1 station! Good progress! Things started to pick up on the way home, its a two hour drive back to Kingman. I timed my contractions haphazardley on the way home, they were about 5 mins apart, nothing SERIOUS. I didnt have a clock with a second hand so I just sort of eyeballed it on the clock in the van. The boys fell asleep on the way home so I had some peace after my husband went to bed, I started timing and they were 3 mins apart lasting 30-45 seconds. I timed for about 45 mins when I called my midwife and my friend. Both headed out the door, my friend coming from across town and my midwife 100 miles. This baby is finally coming!
