Nothing yet. The baby is doing awesome, plenty of fluid, good heartbeats and fetal movement, still at 2 cm, 80% effaced, he is weighing in at 7-7 3/4 lbs. And with all of the digestive clearing I lost 3 pounds since last week. She also wrote me a RX for lidocaine for my hemorrhoids--yippee!!!
She swept my membranes again which while uncomfortable was not nearly as painful as the first time. And there wasn't any cramping this go round.
His head isn't engaged which isn't ideal as that was part of the problem with Elliott, but she thought labor would fix that. She will let me go to 41 weeks and then suggests breaking my water so that I don't end up in OB care (42 wks) where they give pitocin straightaway...and with pitocin the risk of uterine rupture for VBAC candidates increases from one to four percent.
More waiting. I hope the kid holds off till Friday now that we are so close to Thanksgiving as I have a yummy dinner planned.
