40w4d

80%, 2cm, 0 station – no progress in a week

protein in my urine, but not enough to be concerned with – midwife said it was normal past due to see an increase in that… ???

blood pressure 120/80, which is the highest its been this whole pregnancy but is still okay (I guess, she didn’t seem concerned at all about it)

No weight gain in a week.

41 week appointment on Tuesday, then every 3rd day or so until… I explode

I could go into a lot more detail but suffice it to say that my midwife thinks this baby has been ready for a whole week — that it is totally ready to be born. Must. Do. Kick. Counts. now that we’re this far along and the baby is this far engaged and we’re this close to the end.

Contractions have stopped. They were more regular 5 weeks ago than they are now.
