Ten… nine… eight…
I went to the doctor again this morning. Things are happening!
I am 1 centimeter dilated and 60% effaced. Aquaman is in the proper head-down position, and at a station of -2 (the scale runs from -3 to +3, and it just means how far down he’s moved into my pelvis).
He has positioned himself into the launch chamber, and the countdown has begun!

Please wait for me to get there, Aquaman.
I love you, Gramma

I should clarify… I am NOT, I repeat, NOT in labor. My body has just started the prepping a little early. There’s no reason to believe he’ll come before his due date. Lots of women start the launch tube preparations weeks before labor begins. Trust me, you’ll know when that happens!

I was dilated to three and effaced to “the baby should be falling out by now” for three plus weeks. Hang in there, walk and someone told me raspberry tea was good for stretching ligaments. Whatever you do, expect to be pregnant for as long as an elephant. That makes it seem like it’s happening early.

Wikipedia (the source of all truth on The Internets) says that elephants are pregnant for 22 months per baby. DAMN!
