37 week doc visit

First of all I want to apologize for completely dropping off the face of the earth these days. I've been somewhat miserable feeling and when I get home from work I'm pretty much bed rested.

About 3 weeks ago I started having excruciating rib pain, I caught a cold Cooper had and was pretty miserable. After all the coughing I realized that I had really hurt my rib cage. I tried to lay around as much as possible the week following trying to let them heal. Then two weeks ago while at a friends house I was standing there not doing anything at all when all of the sudden I had a sharp pain right at the top of my uterus bottom of my right rib cage. So bad I couldn't stand up straight. It was terrible. I ended up laying on the couch the rest of the night and was barely able to stand up straight to walk the next day. I called my doctor that night and the on call doctor told me to take it easy, that I must have pulled the rib away from the bone. How in the world? I wasn't even doing anything at the time.
It took 3 to 4 days for that to even start to feel much better and the past 3 or 4 days have been much better, thank the lordy.

Today I had my 37 week appointment. I was feeling like there was probably nothing to see but once we got the appointment started my doctor was questioning how long my legs and feet have been "this swollen". He knew my feet were swelling but my legs weren't and today both of my entire legs and my feet are huge. He seemed a little bothered by this. Then he checked me for the first time this pregnancy and said that I'm dilated to a good 4. I think he means I'm definitely a 4, may be a 5 soon.
It could be any day now, or nothing at all will happen. We will see???
I'm actually waiting on a call right now from my nurse because they want to induce me next week if I haven't gone into labor on my own. So sometime between now and late next week we will meet our sweet baby girl. I'm excited and nervous and so many things. I just ask for every ones prayers for a safe and healthy delivery and that our baby girl is healthy and perfect.
