So here is the scoop from yesterday. We went to the dr. appt. and of course we bet on the way there whether or not anything would have changed since Friday. I didn't think anything would have changed, Davis did. Dr. Seeker did his check and this is what happened next...
Dr. Seeker: Well, I think it's pretty safe to say that this baby is going to come earlier than planned. (Davis and I look at each other in shock)
Sam: What do you mean?
Dr. Seeker: Well, you're 1 cm dilated, 60% effaced, and the baby is in the -1 position (which is basically the lowest position prior to delivery).
Davis: Well, do you have any idea when? If you had to guess...
Seeker: If I was a betting man, I'd put my money on a week early, maybe November 5th.
Davis/Sam: Holy cow.
Sam: But could this happen any day? Should I be prepared?
Seeker: Oh absolutely. It could happen any day. In fact, there is probably a 20-25% chance it could happen this week.
We were giddy with shock and excitement. I can't believe how much things changed in just a few days. Now I feel like I'm a ticking time bomb that could go off at any minute- which is both really exciting, and I'm not going to lie, really scary. I still feel like I'm in shock and disbelief. After being pregnant for so long, you almost start to think that there is no outcome, it's just a non-stop state of being. To think that I'm almost done is unreal. I don't really know what to feel.
So that's the scoop. Don't tell Davis you read it here first. :)
