I went to the Doctor today totally prepared to break down in tears if he told me that I was still only diatlated to a 2 but luckily no tears were shed!! I am finally at a 3 1/2 and "have a 50% chance of having a baby in the next 24 hours!" according to Dr. Anderson so he stripped my membranes (OUCH!!) and sent me home to walk. I forced my cousin Julie to take a long walk with me along the Provo River Trail and now we play the waiting game. At this moment I am having contractions that are about 10 minutes apart so we will see...
I must have looked pretty desperate to get this baby out because he scheduled me for an induction on Sunday in case Paxton doesn't want to come on his own. So it looks like we will be having a baby sometime this week and we can't wait!!

How exciting! I actually stopped by your house today after my appointment with Doc. Anderson - must have been during your walk. I hope everything goes well! Good luck!
Oh, I empathize with you! Such a long week. Gage was 10 days overdue at the end of August. Longest summer of my life. But he has to come out eventually! Wait it out as long as you can without an induction. Those make me so nervous - too much risk. I'm just biting my nails in anticipation. I know you can do it!
Aggghhhh!! I can't wait for updates! Good luck! Walk a lot, eat spicy food. Isn't cod liver oil supposed to work?
I didn't mind walking with you at all! And I will keep walking with you until that boy comes out! I'm so dang anxious for you!
YAY!!!! I am so excited for you. Keep us updated. You'll do great...just relax and let things happen.
