It's here!!! Is today the day?
So today is our due date. I went to the doctors yesterday and they said that he is very very low and my cervix is very thin to the point that she can put her finger almost through it and touch the baby. It doesn't make sense that this is happening. So I have to just wait. I have to go to the doctors on Wed and then they will figure out from there what the next steps are. From there they may decide to dialate me using what's called a "Laminaria" which is a seaweed type cigarette they insert in my cervix that will expand forcing me to dialate. The thing is that he is so low that it's possible that they may not be able to give me a Laminaria. But I guess we will have to wait and see if I make it through this weekend without having the baby first. The doctor told me that things can change in a drop of a hat and not to be discouraged. We'll know more on Wed where I stand and at that point we will find out if they are going to decide whether to dialate me on Thurs. and then induce me on Friday or we may decide to wait until Sunday for the seaweed and induce me on Monday. The sec option would work for Josh since he has softball that weekend in Branford but I just don't know if that will work with the doctors. Where ever they can fit me in I guess. Until I know more or something happens......
