The doctor appointment went well today, although there was an hour delay getting seen. That seems to be how all of these last appointments have been going. At any rate, I am dilated another centimeter to more than a 3 now! I am still 80% effaced which hasn't changed for several weeks. I have been having A LOT of contractions, but with my effacement not changing, Dr. Martin doesn't think they are full-on labor contractions.
We scheduled an induction for next Thursday, 2/12. However, Dr. Martin was pretty confident in stating that she doesn't think we'll go that long! So, per the last blog posting, place your bets!! I will tell you that I am going to do some speed-walking. What other suggestions do you have for getting this thing moving along? I won't do castor oil, and eggplant doesn't sound good. Sarah told me pineapple today which I haven't heard before....I like pineapple and it does sound good.
In the meantime, please pray for Hayden's health. He got a cold over the weekend, and I want so badly for him to be healthy. I really want to ensure that he can come to the hospital and be part of that whole experience when his sister is born.... Maybe I'll hold off on the speed-walking until the cough goes away. ;-)

Forget the food. Put Hayden to bed, grab Justin and get your freak on!
ReplyDeleteIt was a fun time. Probably as good as waiting for over an hour can get. These next couple of weeks are going to be a blast.
ReplyDeleteI'm gonna go with the same way that you brought her into the world... I think Mommy and Daddy need some alone time ;) You better get going- all my bets are on tomorrow!!!
