i started having contractions this morning before we went in for my 39 week check up but they were spaced a ways apart. well come to find out, i am 4 cm dialated and 85-90 % effaced. so the answer to the question: definitely strip. my ob stripped my membranes (sorry if that is too much info for a public blog) and set us off with an induction scheduled next tuesday night in case the baby hasn't come.
well, she's coming. today. maybe tonight/tomorrow. contractions are five minutes apart.
my house is scrubbed from top to bottom, my bag is packed, madison is down for a nap, my sister-in-law is on her way, contractions are five minutes apart, and we are good to go!
check back for the good news!
