36 Weeks Down, 4 To Go (or less!)

I had my 36-week appointment yesterday, and were we in for a surprise! Dr. Bost told us a few weeks ago that I might be a little early, but probably not by much. Well, this time he actually checked me, and the baby has dropped to a -2, I am 70% effaced, and have started dilating, but not quite 1 cm. In other words, I may be getting my hopes up, but Dr. Bost thinks it will only be two or three more weeks! Kirk and I are very excited, but I'm now wondering if we're really ready! I still have all his little clothes to wash, hang pictures on the walls, and get the carseat put in! Not to mention the fact that I just started teaching dance classes yesterday, and I'm trying to get all the students settled in and my teachers ready! I wouldn't be surprised if all that stress put me into labor. Thank goodness for all the wonderful parents and my awesome staff!
