Shokufeh is... home

Still here

Last night, my belly was feeling a bit sore and crampy. Then I dreamed that Bean had dropped, positioning his/herself to enter the world. But, this morning, my belly looked about the same. As did my lips (reference to Charla's comment). And at this morning's OB appointment, my cervix was unchanged. So I guess we have a little while to go. Though my OB did say, "Maybe we'll see you next week," implying that I could go into labor between now and next Wednesday. It's all up to Bean and whether s/he takes after my side of the family (I and my brothers were three, two, and four weeks late, respectively), Sam's side of the family (he and his three siblings were relatively "on time"), or strikes out independently and is born a little early.
