37 weeks and counting

We had our 37 week Dr. Apt today. I was hoping for better news. She told me that I was only dilated to 1 cm and that my cervix was very LONG ( what the heck does that mean). She told me at LEAST another week. I keep feeling every little pain thinking it is labor but of course it is not. The only real place I can get comfortable to sleep has been on the couch, but it is so lonely without Jer. Bella does come down periodically to say hi and see if I will play with her. Other than that I am doing well. No swollen ankles, no high blood pressure and no weight gain so I guess we are in it for the long haul (as if 9 months is not a long haul).
