1 cm Dilated!

At my doctor's appointment last week, she checked to see if the baby was making any progress already, and she said I'm about 1 cm dilated and 30% effaced!  Today I am officially 37 weeks, which technically means I'm full term.  If Allisha decided to arrive at any point from here on out, she would be full grown, healthy, and able to survive on her own.  What a relief!  Even though I'm making progress, it doesn't mean she will be coming any earlier...I could be 1 cm for a month.  It's just nice to know we are heading in the right direction!
