So today was my 2nd to last doctors appointment & boy does it feel like it's never ending!
I was 2 cm last week & 80% effaced.
This week I am 3 cm and still 80% effaced.
My Doctor told me if I go on my own, I might not make it in time to get an epidural.
Says my cervix is very soft, plus Brighton is SO low & this IS my 2nd & most of the time you go in about half the time as the first labor.
[No guarantees though]
Kind of makes me hope I'll make it to my due date April 8th & then I get just be induced that morning WITH drugs :) and everything will go smoothly.
*But Brighton is growing well, right on the mark.
Kicking away and showing me how strong he will be.
*And me, I am just barely feeling the effects of swelling in my feet, the past 2 weeks.
No water weight in my face, [such a nice thing] I got a nice tan on my arms & chest from enjoying the awesome weather with Camryn at the park and I am still just waiting for this little boy to join our family!!
*Camryn is loving to go outside all of the time and is constantly making us laugh at her fun faces, crazy little phrases, her silly hiding places & her fun smile.
*Jordan is anxious as ever for his little buddy to come play with him & gets all excited whenever I have a contraction that feels like my pelvis is going to drop out. :) ha ha I think he's more antsy for this baby than me!

Oh I am so excited for you... oh, how I remember those moments. Just hang on until your mom gets here, tell him to hang on! She is excited and antsy. It's almost there!!!
I remember those moments, too! And with Jordan-being the first, Dan was so antsy to see him and to play with him. And now we are all antsy to see Brighton, and I'm excited for Jordan and you and Camryn. And for me when I come down, and to see your mom, too!
