Well I just got back from the dr's...Omg, yall! Okay, I had another ultrasound and I was saying she'd weigh around 7 1/2 lbs, nikki said 6 1/2, and my mom said 7 lbs....Well we were all off! She weighs 8 lbs. 7 oz. Alrady! By u.S.!!! Im freakking out! Lol, my Dr. Checked my cervix and said I wasnt dialated or nething, but it was very soft so he said hopefully I will go into labor on my own in the next two weeks, if I dont then I will get an induction date at my 39 week appt.!!! Woohoo! He said if they let me go to full term, she will b around 10 lbs.And they dont want that b/c I would have to get a csection most def.... So we'll see!!! Omg, and this chick was in there having contractions and I was like aww man, u suck..And she was already dialated to a five! And she was being good too! She wasnt screaming or nething...So she had to go over to the hospital..I was like u lucky dog!!!!

The first 5 cm are the easy part, she wouldnt have done so well after 5...... For some reason most of my friends and I lost control at 6cm...... Maybe its because the contractions really have a punch to them after 5..... Wow you have a big beautiful girl in there, congratulations for growing her so well.......

Well, it's just goona be a race jordan. I'm 2 cm and 50% effaced! They said they will induce me at 39 weeks if I don't go on my own. We'll see.....

I read in one of my baby magazines that rubbing your nipples releases oxytocin which helps you start contracting or something.

Awww ang, I didnt know that! U suck! I was praying an praying that I was dialated, but no such luck, but he said it was really soft, so hopefully that gives me some upperhand...I think u may win ang Sad Sad, if u get induced at 39 weeks tahts still earlier than ill get induced! They will give me a date at my 39 week appt... I wonder how long they will wait afterwards for the date...Within the week right?

I feel alright erica--my feet dont..I clean for a long time but my feet cant keep up so it angers me off...Im going to start walking tomorrow around the neighborhood in the heat! Lol, hopefully if I do that everyday maybe ill b dialated some next week....He said if we wait too long I may have to get a c section..So well see...Man, I wanted to win ang! No fair!!

I still havnt taken the tags off her clothes(even though I was reassured today taht she was still a she) I figure if she doesnt wear it all then I can take it back and exchange if it still has tags-plus if shes big she'll outgrow them alot quicker ! Lol, im glad I didnt get newborn diapers

yea, the u/s lady said it could be off = or - a pound..I was like so she could be anywhere between 7'7 and 9'7? Lol holy cow! Thats still big for her gestational age! Well I have a breast pump..Maybe ill use it...Ill feel like a freak! Lol

omg, does ur thing down there swell? Cuz when he checked my cervix I bout screamed bloody homicide! I was like dayum!!!! But thats life....

Come out baby j!!!!!!!
