    Well, with only 6 days to go it possible could be the start of things to come! I was induced with both my bubs, so cant really comment on your 'feelings', but I hope for your sake it happens soon. Good Luck!

    What do I think? I think you are likely to have a baby before me at this rate, Jasp. LOL. I do swear that I know that some of these contractions I have gone through have "changed the playing field" so to speak. I am sure I am at some point of dilation now. I don't know why, its just a feeling I have. However I am terrified to walk into the hospital and be told its only a couple of cms, lol.

    Thanks ubba

    Inertia I had been wondering how you were going. Are you still leaking? You will beat me yet I think you are a week over & I am not yet due...The thing is you have been having whopping contrax, right? Whereas mine come & go with no rhyme or reason.
    I totally get you about not wanting to go into hossy (not that I am anywhere near that point) I was thinking about asking at the docs today to see if I was dilated at all, to test my theory but I don't really want to go through that just to be told 1-2 cm, which would really mean nothing..now 3 or 4 cm, that would be interesting

    It's just really odd feelings that I haven't expereinced before. Who knows, could be my imagination

    yes Bh do stuff to your body..
    after your first child your cervix never completely closes again so yes you would be dialated some.
    engagemnet well you know that can happen in labour..
