Due October 12th but getting induced on Monday!
I've been feeling so nervous more than anything because I know when it's gonna happened. pregnancy wise I have spd so it hurts pretty bad.. back pain and waking you at night.
I've been taking evening primrose oil, drinking cinnamon tea, walking, bouncing on the edge of my bed (figured it's the same as the ball), walking, and shooting basketball.
I'm completely closed but 50% effaced.
Having a little girl.
She's gonna be in my room.
And, her name is Adylin Ruth Jett <3
