Time for an update!
Weeks: 39 1/2!
Progress: 3 centimeters and 80% effaced.
Contractions: At my appointment last Thursday I mentioned that I'd been having some light contractions since the night before, so my doctor stripped my membranes. That really got things moving along and my contractions were getting closer together and more uncomfortable (but not terribly painful). When they got to 4 minutes apart, we went to Labor and Delivery and they monitored me for an hour. As soon as I got into the bed, my contractions relaxed and got irregular, and since I was still at a 3, they sent us home.
I've still been having contractions since then, but nothing consistent or too painful. I'm determined to not go back to L&D until Cam has to carry me into the hospital from the pain. I do NOT want to ever be sent home again, it was not fun!
My next appointment is on Thursday (due date is Friday).
We're still hanging in there! I honestly think the only thing that's keeping me sane is the fact that I am sleeping pretty well, all things considered. Cam is a great trooper and is getting anxious to hold his little girl!
We'll keep everyone posted.

So excited for you to be a mama Bill! Hang in there these last few days! Loves!
I got sent home with Hayden too, and no it isn't fun! It was the moment I got into the hospital bed that they stopped. Not cool! Good luck, she will be here soon and then you won't be sleeping well! :)
Secretly I hope you have it on Friday, it's Jan and my birthday...crossing my fingers!
So exciting! You'll be such a cute and sassy mama!
SO exciting! I got sent home TWICE with my last one (number 4) and it was awful.
The good thing is when the baby is here it is SO fun. xoxoxo
