We had a doctor's appointment this morning and got some good news! I'm 4 cm dilated already, and with 10 days to go before my due date! Mark and I are hoping that this means the baby will be coming very soon.

The doctor says that since I'm not having regular contractions, the rest of labor might go by fast, so I should go to the hospital when they are 10 minutes apart rather than the standard 5 minutes apart. I've been keeping track of my contractions all day, and they still haven't been very regular. Maybe I'll go for a long walk this evening to get things going :)

On a related note, maybe Mark and I are not too far off when we guessed when the baby would actually be born. I guessed that she'd be born on October 12th, while Mark guessed October 11th. I think it would be cool if she was born on the 11th, since Mark was born on May 11th. I guess we'll see....
