39 weeks, 4 days pregnant
3 DAYS TO GO!
  1. My cervix is soft
  2. Even horrific birth stories involving tearing are not grossing me out, because I am SO EAGER to get this party started
  3. I’ve had not one, but two major episodes of false labour with real-but-irregular contractions. My body is clearly rehearsing for the big performance
  4. Hopefully the false labour has helped to dilate me … a little … maybe?
  5. I am almost out of pregnancy staples like stretch mark oil and heartburn pills

  1. I hope you have that baby soon too! I can't wait to read posts about your life with a new baby, I've loved reading through most of your pregnancy 🙂
