28-5-2009 - Nothing much happening..

My mood while writing this blog: waiting...

Sooo.. I went to the doctor Wednesday. He checked me, and of course there is no dilation. I am maybe 50% effaced. I told him before he even checked me that I knew I wasn't dilated any. You would think this being me second pregnancy that my body would know what to do and I would start to open up but I really think my body likes my babies and wants to keep the baby forever! Either that, or my son is just really cozy in his little home. :) Anyway, I can't complain. I'm trying to be as patient as possible, and I am kind of glad that I wasn't dilated because my doctor was talking about inducing me this week if I would be dilated. I don't want to be induced unless Im past my due date or something is medically wrong. I go back to my next appointment on June 4th. I will be 39 1/2 weeks then. I'm wondering if I will make it to that date.

You see... I feel as if it could be any day now, just whenever the time is right.. its going to happen. Dilation and a loss of mucus plug are signs of labor, but I don't need those signs. For my first pregnancy I was 40 weeks, no bleeding, no loss of mucus plug, no dilation. My water just broke by itself while I was sleeping. I woke up wet and thought I might of peed on myself or something... I had no idea what exactly it was and if there wouldn't have been a slight pinkish, sticky stuff when I went to the bathroom that morning, I probably would of just went back to bed instead of calling labor and delivery. LOL LOL

Hopefully by Thursday I will have some sort of dilation though because being on Pitocin was pretty crappy because the contractions are so much more intense.

but yep.. could be any day now for me, mamas! I know my body!! :) I've been staying off my feet trying to relax as much as possible but I might start walking a lot this weekend after I get my house looking spotless again.

Good luck to all of you who are still waiting to have babies, and all those who just had babies, CONGRATS!
