13 Days to Go

Contrary to popular understanding, human gestation actually requires 9.5 months, not nine. These last 2 weeks are part of that additional period.

Over the next few days, Adelyn's skin will become thicker and paler.

Amy has been having off and on contractions for a couple weeks now, but never less than 10 minutes apart & they fizzle out after a few hours. At her last midwife appointment, she was dilated 1.5 cm, was 30% effaced/thinned, but Adelyn's head was not yet engaged (which sometimes doesn't happen with the second baby until right before labor).
