Everything was good. He is growing just fine. He weighs 6.6 and my waters measured ok, so no need to be induced. Thnk goodness. I would be willing to bet the pain is worse when induced. Although I did feel a moment of disapointment, because I want to have this baby like now, I now am relieved to know there is still a chance I can go into labor without a drip of pitocin.

I have nothing to compare it to. I have been induced with both my other two. I just want to have the experience without the induction ya know. I think it would be neet and exciting to go into labor at home on my own, although I do have a fear of not making it to the hospital in time. Delivering in the car or on my bed is not exactly what I have in mind.
