File this under another post I didn't think I would be writing.
I've never gone 39 weeks.
Praise God the pregnancy that is going the longest is also the easiest pregnancy...no round-ligament pain, minimal back problems (with chiropractic help), less weight gain. Although I do feel like I will now be pregnant forever.
Anyway, today was my weekly OB visit, preceded by the non-stress test and amniotic fluid level measuring. Everything still looks great, but I have only dilated slightly more than last week, and am only slightly more effaced than last week. The baby's head hasn't really dropped lower (like I thought it had!)
So I could give birth tonight, or go another week! He has no reason to induce me this week, but he said we would talk about it if I am still pregnant at my appointment next Tuesday...he doesn't want me to go more than one week over my due date (which is this Sunday, April 25 on his books). So I won't be pregnant past next weekend. And I'm very thankful that I'm not miserable!

Almost there Cindy!!! I'm excited to meet this new little one. Glad everything has been smooth for you this time around.
You have been so lucky to have such a great pregnancy. Here's to some long walks over the next week!!
