waiting..

welp...still no baby yet. we had our dr appointment yesterday am - my doctor had called in sick - so i saw another doctor (who used to be part of the group/practice, but left some time ago - she works a week here and there to help the office out - so she is working this week. she was awesome - really liked her). i was dilated 2 cm + and 80% effaced. she "stripped the membranes" - which was QUITE uncomfortable. this is supposed to/can help get labor moving along. she thought i may have been leaking water - so she had me get an u/s to check my fluid level. fluid level was pretty high - so she said definitely not leaking, but that i'd be sure to know when my water broke. (as i picture myself at work or at the grocery store and with a grand splash...boom i'm in labor) she was very excited for us and seemed to be pretty confident that we'd be back at the hospital in the next 24-48 hours. welp...we're 24 hours down...24 to go to see if she was right. neither chris nor i slept very well last night...we're on edge wondering if it's time...but alas nothing to indicate that's the case. having contractions, but they're kind of all over the place as far as intervals are concerned. still waiting...
