40 weeks and 4 days

My belly is now 110cm. Baby's been moving regularly, am now feeling some intense contractions.

We've checked in at RH this morning despite doctor's advice to admit last mid night cause 1)papa zonked out and 2)natalie has been crying and pleading us not to send her to her grandma's. We ended up enjoying a little rest before waking up at 6am by my first contraction. On hind sight that was a much better option since i have been watching my korean dvd till 3am the night before and spent the entire day in preparation for baby's arrival without a good proper rest!

Despite the contractions, am not dilated yet so we had to induce him artificially via pill. Hopefully dilation comes soon...

Ouch! Am so wanting the epidural now but lets see how far i can go without. Guess its going to be a long day anyway. Better save the bullet for the critical hours.
