Wow, I just read through some of today's posts and see that you're 4cm and 80% effaced?!  That's crazy!  I'm so glad he's held on this long, but I think he's about ready now.  Are you?! 

I go for a check tomorrow.  Last week I was 1cm but still very "thick" (gross) so I'm anxious to see what's going on this week. I honestly feel like the kid could just fall out of me when I'm walking.

Wow, 4cm and 80%?!  That's crazy!!

I go in tomorrow, too, and so far I'm at a big fat zero.

Keep us posted, both of you!

Cubs, be sure to let us know what you find out tomorrow.  I feel like my 1cm was huge progress.  I never dilated at all with either of my girls.  I was 10 days late and was 0cm dilated and 0% effaced.  So this 1cm is a big deal for me!

10 days late?!  Bless you, woman!  Just for that, I'll let you have cuts in front of me, too...you've earned it!

Yep, induced at 10 days late.  I swear she would have never come on her own.  I got smart the second time around when I was 3 days late and again 0cm/0% and asked for induction right then!  Come to think of it, my body has never gone into labor on its own.  I've had two 2nd tri m/c and both times they were caught weeks after the baby died...my body never did the "natural" thing. 

This time around, I'm scrambling to finish up requirements for school so I actually *want* the baby to be late...I need every last day I can get.  And just for that reason, he/she will probably be my early one!
