One More Centimeter

The doctor said I'm dilated to a 3-4, so that is definitely progress. I was grateful to hear the news that things aren't the same as last week. She asked me if I wanted an induction date and I told her big fat N-O. Ok, so I didn't really say that, I told her I didn't want to be induced unless I had to be. She said she would let me go a week and a few days past my due date and after that she "starts to get grouchy". Seriously, her exact words. Pretty funny. She said "bad things can start happening after that" like the "baby could poop" and that is not a good thing. So, I felt a little anxious while waiting to see the doctor because the nurse had asked me if the doc had scheduled an induction date. I don't feel like I'll need one, so the thought of that made me a little anxious at how close the due date is. But, after meeting with the doctor I felt more relaxed about the wait. Mira will come when it's time.

Hmmm, I am pretty sure that this centimeter progresion is due to that super spicy salad you got last night.
