35 Week Appointment

I had my 35 week appointment today and everything is still going great. Corbin's heart rate was in the 140's and he is still head down (she said at this point, he won't flip so we are good to go). I am dilated to a 2 and my cervix has started thinning----she insisted that I didn't need to be worried about the progress. I'm all for making progress because I am VERY uncomfortable but I definitely don't want him to come too early and 35 weeks is way too early. She said that she thinks it is fine though and that it is common to start progressing early with your second pregnancy. We will know more when she checks me again next week. We will also have our last sonogram next week to check his size---I think he is going to be a big baby boy :) (27 days or less)

On a side note, Cason went #2 in the potty for the very first time today. I think it was by accident. He was trying to go #1 and when he looked in his little Elmo potty he was very distraught by what he saw. He wanted me to clean it immediately--LOL! We are not attempting to potty train him at this point though. He has a potty and we let him try to use it when he wants to (which is NOT very often). We are not pressuring him at all and we are happy to let him take his time. Frankly, I'm not quite ready for him to be diaper free just yet.
