36 1/2 weeks
Alden is supposed to be weighing around 6 pounds right now, but according to how our little boy is growing, he is around 7 pounds. We went to our doctors appointment yesterday and I was checked. Alden is head down and WAYYYY far down there. He has slowed down his movements a little bit. He is still moving in there, but not as much.
At the appointment, my doctor checked my cervix. I am 1 1/2 centimeters dialated and 80% effaced. He said the baby could come anytime. He could come tonight, he could come in a week. My doctor isn't concerned about him coming early because he is measuring at 38 weeks.
I woke up this morning at 5 AM with some cramping and I have been uncomfortable all day. I have to teach my last tumbling class tonight before my maternity leave. Hopefully he doesn't come during the class!!
I am completely uncomfortable. He is sitting so low on my pelvis I struggle to move around. I am exhausted. I'm not sleeping at night. I have to go to the bathroom constantly and my body aches.
From now on, I will probably update more often to let everyone know what is happening.

You're getting so close! I can't wait to hear more details. I was 2 centimeters 4 days before I went into labor, so it could happen any day!
