I am 99% sure that I am in the early labor phase now. I am having lots of contractions and I am dilating and effacing, so I am very excited. Also I am feeling the contractions in my back almost as much as I feel them in my lower abdomen. I just wish that I knew how far I had progressed, to this point. I have been stuck at around 2 cm ish, but last Wednesday when I was at the dr I was about 50% effaced and the baby was a station -2. I really want to know where I am now, but I don’t want to go in for that. I have another appointment on Wednesday so I am going to try and hold out until then unless something changes drastically between now and then.

As my readers know I already have children but I was induced, so I feel like I am doing this for the first time all over again. I don’t really know what to expect since I have never gone about this naturally. (Don’t worry I want drugs, esp an epidural) But what I mean I guess is with out being induced. That is like going from no labor pains to transition labor pains in minutes.

Well enough whining about this for the moment, I will talk to you all later. Most likely today because we have experienced another death in the family and I am just not all that ready to talk about it yet, but I will be I am sure.
