At my appointment today, I was a little over 4 cm dilated, 80% effaced, and my cervix was very soft and mushy like someone who is in active labor. It won't be long. The midwife said that if I have any kind of contractions that get even 6 minutes apart, go to the hospital because she thinks it'll go very quickly. I've been having lots of BH tonight, but nothing making me think I need to leave. She thinks I'm in the beginning stages, but that it's just happening somewhat gradually. When it really kicks in, she thinks it'll be a breeze!
