In the safe zone!

I have officially completed 37 weeks of pregnancy which means I have technically made it to full term and it is now safe to have the baby at any point in time. As of last thursday's appointment I had not begun to dialate but the doc said my cervix looked really good. He will check again next Tuesday and we will hope for the best! I haven't had much Braxton hicks contractions (maybe 3?) and still feel pretty good, just huge! My nesting has gone into fill throttle the past couple weeks while john has been on predeployment leave and for the most part, every room in the finegan household has been fully cleaned and organized and made fully functional for a baby to live in (even under the washer and dryer has been cleaned!) The car seat has been installed, hospital bags are packed, all that is left is to pack for 7 months of postpartum in md (yea, easier said than done). So I think I can say with more confidence now that we are ready for baby Elizabeth to come. Whether or not we are mentally...well that's to be determined.
