GET THIS BABY OUT!!!

So I went to the doctor today and I am dilated to a 3 and he said I am thinning too! I can't remember what percent he said but I did hear I am making progress and he also stripped my membrane to hopefully help but we'll see! I hope it works! Have any of you had success with stripping your membrane? He said it works for 30% of women so I am crossing my fingers and praying that I go into labor soon!

I had my membranes stripped starting at 37 wks and every week until I had to be induced for pre-ecclampsia. So- it didn't do anything for me- but maybe for you! Good luck! Please post pics as soon as you can. Love ya!

Yay!!!! I already knew this when I talked to you the other day, but YAY!!! I can't wait to see little Brighton and have her and Porter grow up together. (As soon as you get your Tushes back down to AZ, of course!)
I didn't get stripped, sorry girl! I got indused before I had to resort to that! But my sis-in-law, Tarah, did (a few times) and I think it took her 3 times at 3 seperate apts before she went into labor. But just think! Every little contraction you're having now is moving your cervix along to the big 10 and getting Brighton here!
Sorry I didn't call you today! I think I'm getting sick. I haven't been a sick mommy yet... NOT looking forward to it. I'll holla at you tomorrow.

LOVE YOU!!!
