36 week appt.

So, I had my 36 week check up yesterday. All is well. I haven't gained nearly as much weight as I feared I had. My blood pressure was actually pretty close to normal for once ( guess all the salt I've been trying to eat has finally worked!) Doc tells me that I'm not at all dilated! Not even a smidge! Bummer! I've been having Braxton Hicks contractions for several months so I was really hoping something would be started a bit early. I'm sure that I'm destined for a post due date delivery....again! She did a quick ultrasound to make sure the lil munchkin DID actually turn around and get in the right position. Baby is officially head down and ready to go. Oh, and yes, the penis is still there!

The dilation thing doesn't mean anything. I know so many women who have walked around for weeks 3 cm dilated and other women (including me) who have been told nothing will be happening for a while, only to go into labor the next day.
