You Wanna Do What?

Just got back from my 38 week appointment. I am officially 1.5 cm dialated and 70% effaced. Baby Arndt's head is really low and it sounds like I could definitely go before my due date. The doc also asked if I wanted my membrane stripped. Huh?? "Oh, it just gets thing going so you have a less likely chance of being induced later" To me, it sounds like she doesn't want to work on Christmas! Apparently, being "stripped" simply means she separates the sac from the cervix. Yikes! So, now, I am sitting at home avoiding getting up off the couch in fear that something will gush or fall out.

Happy Holidays!
