Well, we went to the doctor on Friday, and she reported I was dilated almost to a 3 and that things were progressing.... whatever that means in doctorspeak... She stipped my membranes-whatever that means...in hopes of getting things moving... About the only action I have noticed is more intense contractions that don't go anywhere. So here we sit. Beautiful weekend to enjoy with the girls and no plans for what to do. To fish, or not to fish.... to camp or not to camp... to put up a new swing?? Who knows where the weekend will lead us... hopefully on the way to Marshall to have a baby... but we will see.
We go back to the doctor next friday, and if we havn't had the baby by then she was willing to induce me on the following monday... which turns out to be Grandpa Ron's bday.... To induce or not to induce... Have heards LOTS of horror stories about induction. Anyone have any advice??
Enjoy the beautiful weather, it looks like summer is finally here!!

We'll be hoping the stripping of membranes worked...usually if it works it's within 48hrs. I had Joslyn almost exactly 24hrs after having it done. As far as induction goes...i've also heard the horror stories about pitocin..if you want to go natural I've heard it's not the best way to go. I had cytotec with David and it was definitely harder contractions than with Joslyn although it did make the labor go quicker. We'll be praying for everything to go well...can't WAIT to see the new little Carr baby!!!
I definitely should have thought about inviting the girls over for David's party! It would have been a lot more fun for him! I'll remember that the next time we are around!
I hope you do not have to be induced-2 out of my 3 were that situation! naturally is better!! hope all goes well-you've been on my thoughts & prayers lately. Kathy
