36 week excitement!

Danielle • Proud wife and mother of 5! Boy 8yrs, girl 4yrs, 2 boys 3yrs, and girl 1month

So I had my 36 week appointment today...my doc had wonderful news...she said I'm dilated to a 1...I'm fully rippened...and the baby is head down and dropped to the point she can feel her on my cervix...she also said that with the baby's measurements it will be safe to deliver despite it being early...she also doesn't believe I'll make it to the weekend...

The last 2 nights I have had horrendous back contractions that woke me up then disappeared a couple hours later...

I have been doing my daily cups of pineapple juice for a week now to help my body be ready...for those that don't know...pineapples have an enzyme the works similar to the hormones that rippen the cervix...it won't induce labor but helps the body prepare...

I'm excited...and nervous...this is my 4th...but still just as exciting!!!
