I have had two children and am pregnant with my third. The first two are now 10 and 12 years old. I had both of them at 35 weeks gestation and they were both 6.5 and 6.7 respectfully.

If I may give some advice, as you never know when these darlings will want to greet the world. We really have no control over this. Girls, please don't be too scared about giving birth before the 40 weeks. Nutrition is the key. Please eat foods that will give your baby the vitamins and minerals it needs to grow. Do not eat things with "empty calories."

I am now 34 weeks and am fully effaced. I am being given the weekly progesterone shots and have two left. I do hope to make to 36.
