6 days late!

It's the eve of being 6 days post dates! Wow! I must be a really comfortable incubator. I have been having contractions for the last 36+ hours, at times being as regular as every 5 to 10 minutes and quite uncomfortable. We went to the hospital this morning even though knew I would be sent home. I just wanted the reassurance. I'm now 3cm and 70% effaced. The nurse assured me that my irregular contractions are completely normal and are part of the early stage of labor. So, things are in the works but are just moving more slowly than I'd like. I have a doctor appointment tomorrow afternoon and will most likely be sent to the hospital for induction afterwards. It was wonderful to see my Dad and Sister this weekend and wish that we could have had the baby while they were here! Well, I'm off to bed early. These contractions throughout the night make sleeping difficult!

We must be related, because you are doing everything how I do. Always late, always dilated and effaced, but NO BABY!!! Like you said, we must be good incubators. It'll be soon though, I promise! This time we've added a few days onto the due date, so we don't get so frustrated like normal. You sound like your doing great though! We'll be waiting to hear!
