My Plan for Today

I've decided that I will try to get this labor started before Friday, and if nothing happens by tomorrow mid morning I will be forced to make a decision about getting induced on Friday. I'm terrible at making decisions and I am always in fear of making "the wrong decision." This decision seems very, very, very important, more serious than any other decision I've ever had to make. I'd love to go with my gut but I'm even having trouble sorting out what my gut is telling me to do. So back to my plan for today.....walk 5 miles. I've walked one so far and am about to embark on my 2nd and possibly 3rd. I'm going to try to get two more in tonight after R gets home from work. I'll keep everyone posted.

I know exactly what you mean about not even knowing what your own gut feeling is. I've been feeling the same way about this c-section business I've been thinking about lately.

I hope you walk that baby right out so you don't even have to figure out what your gut feeling is!!

When we were at the hospital trying to get my contractions more regular, our midwife suggested the hubs and I engage in some lovin or nipple stimulation. I guess that gets the oxytocin going. That was the last thing I wanted to be doing with my water broke and 40 wks pregnant. At least you can have some privacy and candles :)
