36 Weeks!

I'm 36 weeks pregnant today! Earlier in the week I had lost a tiny bit of my plug but thought nothing of it. Well after I had my internal exam and I came home that night I started losing more. ALL DAY yesterday I was losing my plug and last night I lost A LOT of it. I'm still losing it this morning. It's like the plug that never ends LoL! I'm getting braxton hicks contractions and a few painful ones here and there but nothing major. I lost my plug with my girls early too and they never came so I'm not reading too much into it but it shows SOMETHING is happening in there... hopefully more dilation and effacement. 1 week from today he'll be considered full term and I will do all the old wives tales to get him out... not that they ever worked with my girls LoL. I've been drinking my red raspberry leaf tea (not raspberry tea, this is much different) and the contractions are picking up and since I'm already progressing it's doing it's job. I'll be going out to get Evening Primrose Oil tablets in the next few days as well so we'll see how that goes. I won't start taking them till after Taylor's birthday this Saturday in hopes that if this sparks labor, instead of just making the cervix soft, she will have had her birthday LoL. I've never tried it before so we'll see. My bets are still on little man needing to be evicted LoL :)
