Baby update...

Well, here in the Yakovlev household, we're getting ready to have a baby! When I saw the doctor on Friday, I was 5 cm dilated already and 80% effaced (sorry if that's TMI for anyone!). They put me on the monitor to see if I was having contractions but since they weren't close enough together to be worrying, I was allowed to go home. So I've been under strict instructions this weekend to time any contractions I feel and if they get to 7 minutes apart then I'm to go in and be induced to get things really going. The doctor is just nervous I might deliver at home, since I'm pretty far along already...Yikes! But nothing seems to be going on and I got to be at my sister's baby shower yesterday and hopefully be around for her other one this afternoon (for all Mum's friends). They are both held at our house, so I really wanted to be here! If nothing happens tonight, then I go in at 8:45 tomorrow morning to be checked and probably induced.

So it looks like March 1 might be our little boy's birthday!
