37 1/2 week appointment

I had a really great appointment today. I found out that I tested negative for Group B Strep. I also let them check my progression and both my doctor and I were surprised. I'm 100% effaced and dilated to 2 cm with the baby's head on its way in the birth canal.

My doctor was thoroughly impressed that I haven't really noticed any contractions and that I'm this far as a first time mom. Now, this doesn't mean I'll for sure have the baby earlier than my due date, but it does mean it's a little more likely.

Dr. Taber said this appointment totally made his day. Here's hoping LuLu doesn't want to wait for over 19 days to make an appearance! LuLu also sounds more like me than Tim, preparing for everything far in advance. I'm pretty sure this kid had been head down ready to go since 18 weeks. Only time will tell!
