I give an update. :)
My 36 week appt. Cervix closed, 50% effaced. Measuring 36 cm.
My 38 week appt Closed, 50% (no progress) measuring 41 cm (what?) So dr. says, come back Monday (a couple days ago) for an u/s. It appears we have a big baby, and he is measuring like 10 lbs 1 oz. He wants to do a c/s. I say nope, I want a vaginal delivery, tell him my feelings he decides to check my. I am 3 cm and 75% yay to progress. He "measures"my hips and agrees to wait until Friday (tomorrow) to let Logan come on his own. After that he wants to induce if I still want a vaginal birth, I say we will discuss it Friday, quite confident that I will have gone by then.
This week, contractions off and on. By on I mean, regular, "real" contractions that come every 3-7 minutes for several hours, some I have to stop and focus to get thru, but usually fizzles out after 6 hours of that. Since Tue. PM losing mucous plug everytime I go to the bathroom in good amounts, I'm suprised there is anything left. Most recently its blood tinged. I feel ready, I can't imagine my cervix hasn't progressed with all the walking, Evening primrose oil, and contractions.
But, now its Thursday, and dr. wants to induce tomorrow,and I am getting stressed. I REALLY don't want to be induced. I am ready to meet this little guy, and would like to have him and be home, we have family/company arriving for on Monday. LOL I can't imagine its much longer, but I guess no one knows for sure right?
Theres been other crazy stuff going on, that I won't get into, but for now we are all settled, and trying to get the house organized. We have a lot of stuff, and not much space.
So, lets hope he comes soon!

You don't HAVE to consent to induction. You are a smart woman. Don't be bullied!
Though bloody show is a SUPER sign that things are happening. I wouldn't be surprised if you have that baby long before the doctor can try to force you into an induction.
Good luck!
