no I haven't had the baby yet... just wanted to give everyone a quick update


I started Evening Primrose Oil 3 nights ago to thin out my cervix, and the contractions seem to be picking up.


I spent about 6 hours in L&D yesterday because I was having trouble breathing and my chest was hurting pretty bad. They put me on oxygen for a while and monitored Brayden, and came to the conclusion that everything is fine... I just have such a short waist to begin with, and punkin is pushing everything up so hard that I can't breathe. When they checked me I had actually dilated 1cm (which is better than nothing).


My next appt is friday, and if nothing has happened by then she may try stripping my membranes. If still nothing by monday, I'll have a c-section monday morning.


My mom is driving down right now and should be here by early afternoon... she's going to stay until the end of next week. I'm so glad because I really need help during the day while Kyle is at work.


I really miss being on the board and chatting! I hope everyone is doing well, and either Kyle or I will update asap if something happens.


lots of hugs!!!
