On a countdown now!
I went to the doctor's today. I am 2 cm dilated, 60% effaced, and she scraped the membrane! What does this all mean? Well, I think we are getting close! (At least closer!) Scraping the membrane is something they do to "naturally" stir things up. It is able to start up contractions, labor, and possibly get the water to break. I looked up all of this information online when I get home because I wasn't exactly sure about it. Some women reported once they had their membranes scraped they went into labor within 24 hours...other women said it did nothing for them. SO, there is just no way of telling what will happen or when! All I know is I am ready to meet this baby! I am so uncomfortable and tired! If I don't have him by Sunday, my due date, then I am scheduled to go in on Monday to see if there is any more progression. Then she is going to decide if I need to be induced middle of next week and how. Keep your fingers crossed it all just happens on its own, and by SUNDAY!
