Well, I progressed very little this week...like 1/2 a cm and no effacing. Baby is still sitting right where she has been. I didn't expect any progress this week because, heck, that's the trend I follow. We had to set a temporary induction date (Sept 28) and I really, really hope I don't get that far. The placenta starts to disintegrate approximately 10 days after the date the baby is due, so they really want the baby out around that time. My Dr also said there is a window (7-10 days past due date) that the likelihood of needing a c-section is decreased when being induced, after that point it skyrockets. So that's what we'll aim for if completely necessary.
Please keep your fingers crossed, and say a prayer or two, that Baby will come on her own before the induction date. I hope she is obedient and listens to what her mama wants.

I'm thinking positive thoughts. I was TOTALLY against being induced too, but sometimes things have to go other than planned. All that matters is that mamma and baby are safe and healthy. I wish you the best. Enjoy every second. Its the greatest thing you'll ever do. Love ya!
everything will work out just as it should. it is frustrating im sure to have the doctor say there has been no progression, but things can change, and change super fast. so just cause you haven't make too much progress yet doesn't mean you are far away. i know you are anxious for baby girl to come but enjoy these last few moments of not having a kid... relax and go get a pedicure : )
The end seems to take forever! Hang in there! She will come before you know it!
So frustrating! I didn't like the "wait" time either. Although I was induced for medical reasons, it wasn't as bad as I thought...I think I told you about it, but if you have any questions let me know. :) I'm sure she will come before you know it!
