Birth on my Birthday?

36 wks.
38 wks.
I can feel that she is so ready to come! I'm suprized she hasn't yet. At 36 wks. I was already dilated 2cm and 60% effaced. 37 wks. I was 3cm and 80%. I am 38 wks. now. I see the doc tomorrow. The past few days I have been contracting regularly, but then they go away. Some have been very painful! It started Sunday night, I couldn't sleep because I kept waking up to another contraction, so by 4am I decided to get up and start timing them, but they went away. Then Mon. (yesterday) I was contracting all day, on and off. I would time them, and they'd be 3-5 min. apart for 20 min. then go away. That happened like 4 times! I totally thought she'd come yesterday or even today, but no sign of her today. I actually feel alot better today (less contractions) than I did yesterday, so I don't know what's going on. That would be pretty cool if she came today, cuz it's my Birthday! Selfishly, that would be awesome, but I do want her to have her own day. I'm sure she will come in the next couple days :) And I'm sure I'm atleast 4 or 5cm dilated and mostly effaced, cuz I have lost my mucous plug. I'll find out tomorrow! She better come soon, cuz I'm so done. I just can't wait to have her here!
