Dr. Guru says.... any day or 5/19....

2 cm now.... head still down, bp was 122/78 but it was a bit high for me b/c  dr. had us waiting for 30 minutes past our appt. and i was just antsy. she was stoked about the 'you're measuring a good 2cm' though so that's promising i guess, better than a bad 2 cm. so some progress...

she brought up the fact that she may have to induce if labor doesn't go quickly enough b/c i'm going to need antibiotics in my iv to fight a strep b bacteria (fairly normal ~30% of moms get and they want the kid out quick in that case)- that doesn't make me happy (the induction part) b/c i've pretty much heard that if they start the pitocin, i may as well get the epidural b/c the strength of the contractions will kill me plus the whole bp meds in the iv b/c of the pitocin so more meds.... so that doesn't make me happy but if it's necessary, i guess we just gotta do it.

we'll see how goes....
