36 Weeks 4 days Appointment

Well today I had my 36 week regular doctor appointment. I gained 3.5lbs since my last appointment on July 22. I am now at -7.5lbs since Dec. 31 (my first appointment). His heartbeat was 137 bpm. I am now 1 cm dilated and she actually felt his head. I think when she said that, it was a little bit of a reality check that I'm actually having a baby. I know it sounds weird that I've been pregnant for 9 months and now with 3 weeks left I'm JUST now realizing I'm having a baby, but I guess it just hasn't been real until now.
