36 weeks doc appt.

Well Doc was out of the office today, so I saw his nurse. She was old and very knowledgable. She has been a L&D nurse for almost 40 years. WOW! I liked her. Anyway, she did a group B strep test, so we are waiting on the results for that. She also did an internal exam. I am 50% effaced and 2cm dilated. Blah... I wish there was more progress. I told Jared we need to have more sex! Here is the kicker for me, he has NOT dropped. When I was in 2 weeks ago and even before that doc said that I was in so much pain because baby had dropped. WTF?? So I asked the nurse, if the baby hasnt dropped why am I in so much pain? She says his head is definitely nestled right in my pelvic bone, but when he does drop the pain will most likely get much worse. Again WTF?? My chin dropped when she said that. I dont really understand how it can get much worse. And when he does drop does that mean he will be putting even more pressure on my sciatic nerve? Well at that point I am pretty sure I will be bed ridden until the little stinker comes out. This next 4 weeks or so is going to go so slow.
