40 week Midwife Appointment
Well everything is moving along slowly. I am now thinned more, dialated a
tiny bit more and streatchier.. I dont know how effaced I am or anything she never tells me but I had my membranes stripped again. Apparently I have forewaters forming and the mucas plug has stopped being so goopy My midwife and the OB both agree that since the baby is growing fine and seems happy to be where he is then we can leave him to come out when he wants to. They like to induce at 10 days past due and that would be fine with me but they said since early ultrasounds suggested a due date of 10/26/04 they have some leway with that so I would not even get them to agree to induction until November in the earliest! My mom is coming from NH on the 26th so I dont care what day I give birth as long as it is before then They said a c-section would be awful for me so they WILL NOT do anything to raise my risks.. Gotta love them for that I guess Tori -- Bonnie 3/20/02 Xavier Late due to being his fathers child. I would have been 15 minutes early |

Really, Tori, your midwives sound awesome! I think with the signs you've been
having it's going to be any time. :-) Leslie Emily (2/4/91) Jake (1/27/94) Teddy (2/15/95) William (3/5/01 -- VBA3C, 13 lbs. 5 oz.) and Lorelei, expected 11/2/04 "Children come trailing clouds of glory from God, which is their home." ~ William Wordsworth |
