I went to the doctor today. Great News! I have progressed to 4 cm. and am 75% effaced. Labor has got to come soon! He said that I am the most dialated person in his practice - I'm not sure that is something to brag about. Sean and I felt very excited that at least we're seeing some progression. He said that labor won't be long once it comes so that is also a blessing - mom is just hoping that she makes it on time. He also officially wrote me out of work, meaning that I now have an official excuse to be home. He offered again to induce and I declined. He told me that I might be regretting my decision when real labor pains start. I probably will but I still want the experience. If I haven't had the baby by Monday, I have to go back so that they can perform a stress test on the baby to make sure that the womb is still supporting it. It's routine to do this a week after the due date. We'll keep you posted.
