Well i was scheduled to have the prepidil put in this morning at 8 am. We arrived got into a room, was checked and now im only 1 cm. Last week i was 2 but i guess it just depends on who checks it. She said im buttery soft, and cervix is still very posterior. So im sitting here contracting every 5 min and my back is killing me. She did say i will get some contractions and cramping but sometimes some woman go home and it goes away. So im pretty sure we will be going home after an hour or so. We will probably go take a very long walk and go down the street to another hospital to visit my sister who gave birth to her twin daughters last night! And if nothing happens by wednesday i will probably have another appointment to see where im at. If this doesnt put me in labor im refusing to do anythng else. She will come when she is ready. Wish me luck ladies. Oh yea and these contractions are getting painful, my back hurts and i can feel the contractions in my butt. Is that weird?
In L & d

). As SOON as you get a chance lean forward, do hands and knees, do lunges...if you still have a computer near you go to spinningbabies.com for more suggestions. Before you get sent home, see if someone will tell you which side the baby's back is on....

That's where I felt the majority of the contractions, not fun. Good luck!
I was hoping they would get stronger and more consistent. But no they arent. So i have an appt on Thursday. I will be 41 wks 1 day. She will be here soon. My midwife said she thinks i will have her by this wkend but at my next appt. they will be checking fluids. We will see
