as of now, i am combining this blog with abby's blog into a brand-spanking-new one. the new blog can be found at:
www.the-rogersfamily.blogspot.com
i'm starting the process of copying and pasting all posts from these old blogs into the new one, but it will take some time.

the home stretch
yes, it's finally here. the beginning of the end of this seemingly infinite pregnancy. everybody together now..."WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"
i had a doctor's appointment last thursday and i asked her to check me because i've been so uncomfortable that i figured something MUST be happening in there, progress must be being made somehow. but, i was wrong. cervix long and closed, as it should be at 34 weeks 5 days. she did say that it had softened, which is a good sign of impending progress. so, next time i go back i will be 36 weeks 5 days, and something better be going on in there at that point.
i've pledged not to bitch and moan (too much) about how uncomfortable i am, but i can't stop. this is way worse than i ever felt with abby. everything hurts. my lower back spasms, my ligaments have reached their critical limit, the braxton-hicks contractions don't stop, and it feels like the baby is stabbing my cervix with a knife.
let's all hold hands and direct our mental energy at baba ghannouj and my uterus, saying together, "it's safe now, you can come out. come out NOW." yeah, maybe that'll work.
