OB check today. Still "2 & soft." She wanted to talk about induction today, but kindly put it off for me until my appointment next week. Please pray with me that we won't come to that point. (TMI alert: Been wiping a decent amount of mucous every time I go to the bathroom, so there's a good chance it won't.) I have an acupuncture appointment later this afternoon. I hope that gets things going again. It gave me all kinds of wonderful, regular contractions last time, but in the middle of the night they just stopped. Maybe this time they won't... My dad leaves very early Friday morning, so we are still hoping the baby gets here by tomorrow night. At this point, if the baby does come, I won't be out of the hospital before he leaves...

I've been reminding myself to slow down and enjoy this time... Who knows if I'll ever get to experience it again. Yeah, it's a little hard/uncomfortable to move, but it is such a miracle... Gotta keep that thought in the forefront!
