Doctor appointment update

Just wanted to give everyone what should be the last of the baby updates...

I had my last doctor's appointment today and I'm at 4 cm and 70% effaced. How someone can get to 4 cm without having contractions is beyond me...but that's where I am. So, after talking with the doctor and then Bob and I discussing it further here is what we have decided...9:00 am tomorrow morning we will check in to the hospital. (As long as I don't go into labor on my own tonight.) I tested positive for Group B Strep again this time, so they will put me for antibiotics for that and then two hours later they are going to break my water. They'll probably have me walk for a little bit and my doctor thinks that because how ready my cervix is my contractions should start really good on their own. So, I guess we're having a baby tomorrow. It's really weird knowing that there is an end in sight, but a relief at the same time. I was really starting to wondering this time if I was going to make it to my due date...I guess not!:)

We have internet on our phones, so I may update the blog as the day goes on...instead of having to make calls to everyone. So sometime tomorrow Luke will arrive...unless I change my mind at the last minute and his name is something else. :)
