Lizzy Lu--an update

Hello all! Just a quick Elisabeth update for y'all...I went to my midwife today and found out that I'm dilated to a 3 and 70% effaced. She has also started to drop down. Since things are moving right along, she went ahead and stripped my membranes. This means I have about a 50% chance of going into labor within the next 3 days. We'll see! We did go ahead and schedule my induction date for May 7th. She is 6 lbs 15 oz right now--she gained a whole pound this last week! (I lost 1) So one way or the other, we're going to have a baby within 2 weeks! Holy cow!!

Pegs, I have to say that it's hilarious that you already call her "Lizzy-Lu" -as this is an EVERYDAY occurance in my home with my Miss Elizabeth (which you'll call yours too -direct from P&P).
They stripped my membranes with Mia-Babes, and I almost slapped my Dr -she didn't tell me what she did until she was DONE! Good news is that the baby was on the OUTSIDE 13 hours later. :)
