After contracting on my own during the morning, I went to the doctor at 10 am because I had my week overdue appointment and ultrasound scheduled. My contractions had stopped. At the doctor, my midwife checked me and I was 4 cm. I was elated- I had to be induced with Megan, so to have a baby on my own was pretty exciting! She stripped my membranes and I went back home about noon.
By 2 pm, we were back into full labor and at Methodist Hospital. I labored for a couple of hours on my own (no pitocin required!!), got in the whirlpool, and at 4:19 Courtney was born!
Here I am having contractions at the hospital.
