So, I went to my OB appointment this morning, doing spectacular. I'm 80% effaced. Was 50% effaced last week, been having lots of Braxton Hicks contractions and my OB is thinking of inducing me between my 39th and 40th week, only like 3 days before my estimated due date. I have mixed feelings about this. Yes, it makes me really excited but with it being my first...I'm feeling apprehensive. My mother will be leaving the country 2 weeks later, if I allow him to induce me on the 18th-19th. If I wait for her to come on her own time then I may only have a few days for my mother to help me after birth.
