Wishing...

Lost my mucus plug last night/this AM (9.11.14). She did a membrane sweep yesterday at my appointment where I was 2cm and 60% effaced. A little bitty improvement. I don't know if the "bloody show" last night was from the sweeping, but it made me a little happier to see things maybe moving along a little. Today when I got in the shower more came... Not bloody, but definitely a mucus. Gross. 

I've been having more BH contractions everyday, but she said unless I have to breathe through the contractions to not count them (which was ultra disappointing). Anyway, if our little baby stubborn son doesn't come by his due date (8 days!!!!!!), then we are inducing the 21st (9 days!!!!!). So either way, hopefully, we will have a natural progression here in the next week and I won't have to be induced. However, having an actual date makes me feel a lot better. My feet look like softballs, it hurts to walk and feels like the arches of my feet are tearing, my legs are heavy, my arms and face and hands are so bloated. My fingers are so swollen that my joints pop when I close my hand around something. My jeans and sheets are leaving indentions in my legs and butt. I am really curious to see how much of this is actual weight and how much is water weight. They checked me for preeclampsia and that wasn't going on, so... I dunno. 

I'm going to go for a walk today to see if I can get something moving! I want to bring our baby home!
