I had a doctors appointment earlier today and I was 3cm dilated. Dr. Durkee was leaving on vacation so my next appointment as going to be with one of the nurse practitioners. She scheduled me for an appointment on August 5th to have an ultrasound and check the baby's fluids. If all was fine, she was scheduling me for an induction on August 11th when she returned from vacation.
It was about 7:30pm and I was on my way home from the Cheesecake factory where I had met Jerri and Krissy for dinner and cheesecake. It was the 30th anniversary of the cheesecake and they were selling $1.50 slices, so we couldn't resist. I was on the phone with Gram as I pulled into the garage. As I stood up from the car around 8pm, I felt something wet, almost like I wet my pants. I reached behind me and felt that the back of my jean skirt was wet. I walked in the house and Brian was on the computer. I looked at him and said "not to panic you, but I think we have a situation". I turned around and showed him my skirt. I think my water may have broke. We called my Mom and she said to lay down for a while and see if anything more comes out. I laid in bed for a while- nothing. Went on the computer to check my email- nothing. I got up from the computer and walked to the bathroom. By the time I got there, there was another gush of water. This is it- Baby L is on his or her way! I was not having contractions so I took a shower, shaved, dried my hair, finished packing, and straightened up the house a bit. Brian was beginning to hurry me along so we said good bye to Oliver and headed to Winnie Palmer.
