I know I'm not due for another 8 days, but my appointment today didn't go as expected. I could swear I lost my MP this morning so I was excited to get checked and find out how dilated I am. Well...I'm still long, firm and closed. He's giving me a 60 to 70 percent chance of having a c/s. If this happens I will go to a different hospital than I planned to go to because apparently the OR at the one 5 min from my house has been very busy. I go back to the doc on Monday and am hoping for some sort of progress. We'll be scheduling an induction when I go. I'm a bit overwhelmed and sad. I know the goal is to get her here healthy and safe and that will always be my goal, but I don't like how everything is changing at the last minute.
3 ectopic pregnancies (EDD's 1/30/12-tube removed, 6/2/12-methotrexate and 10/2/12-methotrexate)
IVF and Natural FET resulted in BFN's and a hole in our wallets
Natural BFP #4 on 9/7/12 gave us our miracle on 5/18/13
I'm sending you tons of "Hurry up and dilate, cervix!" dust
That would bug me sooo bad if they started changing everything on me that close to delivery. Hang in there. Either way, you'll have a beautiful rainbow baby in your arms soon. And I bet the second you see her face, none of this other stuff will matter.
I hope you get to stick with your birth plan!

I've tried lunges and EPO. I'm going to try to seduce DH, but my whale figure doesn't make me feel very attractive. I actually cried thinking of how awful I'll feel to get shot down since I already feel so insecure.

I know that it hurts to have your plans change at the last minute, especially after all it has taken to get her to this point. Just breathe and keep doing what you're doing! Love you lady and hope that your follow up goes better!
