Still Waiting......


Thanks so much for all the "getting labor started" tips.  They are great and I must admit some are rather funny.  I've done just about all of them at this point : )  I did see my MD yesterday and he said that I'm 3 cm. dilated, 70% effaced and -1 station.  So, yay!  Something is working and I'm further along going into this labor than I have been with the last 3 births. He actually did a stretch and sweep of my membranes too.  Last night I ate almost a whole pineapple (of course, I had to share with my little kidos : ) I'm going to walk the mall this morning.  The plan is to be induced (no pitocin, just rupture membranes) on Tues. if I don't go into labor this weekend.  Oh, and supposedly the gelato shop has this grapefruit gelato that is supposed to trigger labor.  I think I'll just have to go there tonight......any excuse to eat gelato.  Thanks for all the prayers and support.  Hopefully, I'll be holding little baby boy soon!
