August 2012 Moms

One week and one hour ago...

I mostly lurk and occassionaly post, but I thought I'd post a brief birth story.

My 39 week appointment was two Mondays ago and I was closed up tight for my first internal. I was slightly soft but not at all effaced or dilated.

Last Wednesday I went to bed with no signs of labor, I even woke up at 1 to take a leak and felt nothing, then bam! At 4:40 my water broke. To make a short story even shorter, my little guy Henry was born just shy of 4 hours later.

So anyone who's frustrated by a lack of progress, take heart. Things can go really, really quickly.  

Good luck to all the August ladies still waiting on their LO's arrival!
