I was almost in labor last night. Almost. That's the key. I hate that word today!
At 12:30 am contractions started with a bang-every 5 minutes-and continued until about 3:30am. That's all there is. They stopped.
My OB appt. was today, so I at least held some hope that those contractions were making a difference. Ummm, nope. Nothin'. Well, okay, last week I was dilated to a whopping 1 and now it's a "1 to a 2".
My OB said that if I make it to next week (my due date plus one day) then my appt before I see her is for a sono to check several factors that contribute to the baby's well being. If all is well, she'll continue to monitor me like that until 42 weeks. If we go that far, we might have to resort to something like this (sorry, Shane is a poor influence on me-I stole it from his blog)
Shane & I went to the appt today, and out for lunch afterwards sans kids, in faith that this would be our last chance for a childless date for a while. Here's hoping!

Ha! You know he loves it that way...keep everyone guessing! Although, it is a step above his usually grunting style of communication, lol.
I wanted him to blog about his date with Bethany but that may just be too normal.
Praying you don't require a plunger. Hang in there!

Well, having used a plunger like device to get my 2 out, I don't recommend it. LOL
Sorry, I guess I should have told you that was me.
