Time's a comin

Had my 38 week appointment today. I am nearly at 5cm. Still 80%. Our doctor was surprised to see me today, she didn't think we would make it another week. She offered to strip the membranes today before we even asked! It wasn't too bad, more just the pressure to get in there and do it. I am feeling pretty crampy now though, so we'll see what it does for me.

While there, we did ask why she says no to inducing because of big babies. She said we are a different story though because of how far along I am (to the point where if I start having serious contractions to pretty much not wait and just go in!) and so we talked inducing. It just so happens that she's on call on Monday and is willing to induce us if we don't want to wait until next Wednesday with the scheduled c section. Well, Monday is 8/9/10. Induce Monday? Yes please! Then, we don't have to worry about insurance covering for the c section that's pre planned. And, did I mention that it's 8/9/10? That is, assuming of course, that we go until then.
