We had our weekly doctor's appointment on Wednesday. We were told that I was 1 cm dilated and 60% effaced. It's exciting to know that things are starting to happen, but we also know I can walk around like this for weeks.  The doctor thinks the baby is about 6.5 pounds or so now, and should be around 7 when she's born (of course, we know they can be way off on those things, but it's cool to hear their estimate). We'll let you know how the next appointment goes. Update: Now 2cm dialted, but nothing much else new to report after today's appointment.
