You will all be glad to know I had a very nice weekend.<\/p>\n
On Saturday was my baby shower and I had a great time. All my friends were there and everyone was super nice and I had great food and they made me a very cute cake. Everyone really went all out to make sure the day was special for me and I got tons of great gifts for Ryland. It was awesome. I have the greatest friends in the world. People took lots of pictures, so if I get any maybe I’ll share them. It really was a fabulous day and it feels good to be so loved. I hope everyone else enjoyed themselves, but it doesn’t really matter, cause it was MY DAY not theirs. Ha ha.<\/p>\n
I also got internet access this weekend, high speed internet access. And it is free, to make it even sweeter. I love free. Now I can internet away to my heart’s content and all from the comfort of my own home.<\/p>\n
On Friday, I had an OB appointment and my doctor did an internal exam and told me I was 2 cm dilated and 80% effaced (effacement is the thinning of the cervix). I am not in active labor yet, but she told me I could go at any time. So who knows when this baby will come. I haven’t felt any contractions. I may have this baby in a few days or in three weeks, who knows. But I’ll tell you this much, it’s freaking me out.<\/p>\n
After I’m done being pregnant, I don’t get to go back to the way I was before, back to my normal life. And the only way out of this whole pregnancy thing is to have this baby. And after that, then there will actually be a little tiny baby in my arms. For the rest of my entire life. It’s scary and intimidating. And exciting as all hell. But damn if it doesn’t bend my mind.<\/p>\n
I am both happy and sad to no longer be pregnant. I’ve really liked being pregnant, even the bad parts and the uncomfortable parts. Pregnancy is such a surreal experience. You only get one first pregnancy. And when it’s over, it’s over.<\/p>\n
So to recap: I had a terrific baby shower, I finally have high speed internet at my house and I’m 2 cm dilated. <\/p>\n
