Good News

So I had one of my doctor appointments today. In talking to my midwife she said it was up to me if I would like to be checked today or not. I said sure, nothing is probably going on but why not! So she checked me and good news I am dilated to a 3 and 70% effaced, which totally surprised me! We scheduled me to be started on the 17, and if I decide not to I can just cancel it, but I must say it is nice to see an end in sight! So now the real fun begins, acupressure, walking at high rates of speed for a prego women, heavy cleaning, making bread(kneading it works for some), and all those other things to help get me going! Sure I could sit at a 3 for the next 18 days or I could go in the next few day!~An answer to prayer!~ Either way it was a good day at the doctor to know that we are moving in a direction! It does explain the 3-4 hours of "contractions/ braxton hicks" I have been having every morning for the last while! All I can say is I am SUPER HAPPY!
