Tenterhooks I am on, but I'm trying to stay patient....trying be the key word!<br /><br />Michelloui thank you for all your vibes - I need them!<br /><br />Cherylyn, thank you for thinking of me and the insight into waters breaking/shows/etc. I saw the midwife today for a membrane sweep and we did get some show, so maybe that will move things along a little bit...<br /><br />Aunt Judy - I hope I have some news soon! I did feel calm but a little bit less so today when the midwives started talking about induction if I go to 42 weeks. I hope that is a discussion I don't need to follow up on but it all depends on whether this little lady of ours decides to make a move sooner or later.Tanya (Bump2Basics)https://www.blogger.com/profile/11190613569079236305noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1195788236766051950.post-51475876060746498342010-01-15T02:05:56.331+00:002010-01-15T02:05:56.331+00:00i keep checking your blog...if you're writing,...i keep checking your blog...if you're writing, you haven't had the baby...right?! and, you're so funny and CALM...i love it...so like your mom. may she (the baby) come soon! judyJudy MSMhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09045123281422130581noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1195788236766051950.post-41461546371310149392010-01-14T21:18:59.797+00:002010-01-14T21:18:59.797+00:00It could be broken... just a trickle.

You'll know when the contractions start coming ;) With my 4th pregnancy I had a fore-bag that ruptured when I got up to go to the bathroom. It trickled down my leg and I told my husband that either my water had broken or I had wet myself! I knew it wasn't the latter, but it was later in the hospital that they told me it had been a fore-bag. Apparently sometimes there's a smaller sac before the main bag of waters.<br /><br />Watch for your mucus plug to come out. They call it "bloody show", and for first-time moms it usually comes out pretty soon before labor starts. Another thing to watch for is lightening or dropping of the baby into your pelvis. This is something else that usually precipitates labor in first-time moms. Good luck! I keep thinking about you each day...Cherylynhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10683110268816902044noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1195788236766051950.post-84910254355348147262010-01-14T18:17:41.061+00:002010-01-14T18:17:41.061+00:00This made me chuckle.
