Almost there

Only 4 days until my due date. It seems like the last 9 months just flew by. But on the other hand, the last 4 weeks have not.
I got a review from the doc today and she says that I am showing mild signs of progress. My cervix is softening but no dialation yet. From my understanding, that is not abnormal for first time mothers, neither is it abnormal for mothers in my family. So...I am trying the little tricks that the doc suggested in an attempt to 'help' nature along. We'll see if it works.
I would be oh-so-happy if this lasted only through the weekend.
We'll see.....
