week 37, only 3 weeks 'til due date

Kristen had her week 37 appointment today. The doctor checked for dilation again and today she reported Kristen is 1-2 cm. It's not a lot but you only need 10 cm for full dilation! She also said that someone who is dilated three weeks before generally does not go past her due date. Hopefully that holds true!

They did, however schedule an induction date of 30 December just in case. Apparently at this time of year, people due in early January schedule inductions for end of December to try to make the tax deduction deadline. Kristen would out rank some of the folks scheduled on that day since she would be past due date at that point.

The goal right now is to take lots of walks and try to help labor progress naturally!
