3 cm dilated!

Yesterday I went for a check up and the midwife told me I was 3 cm dilated!!
"YOU CAN'T GO BACK TO TATEYAMA UNTIL YOU HAVE YOUR BABY!!" was what she told me. So, I am now in Hamano (15 minutes away from my midwife's clinic), waiting for stronger contractions to kick in. Apparently, I didn't even realize that I was going into the early stages of labor. Even now, nothing serious seems to be happening. It could be like this for a good few days if nothing picks up.
I went for a 30 minute walk today and contractions started coming a bit more, but both Josh and I decided that it won't be coming out any time today, so he went to work in Tokyo and will come home at midnight tonight.
So, maybe from tomorrow I'll start walking around and doing what I can to induce labor.
I go to the midwife on Monday again to see if anything has progressed.

I'll do my best to keep you posted if I'm at home and things are progressing...however, if things are progressing too fast, I'll end up mailing or calling you. :)

Wish me good luck and keep me in your prayers for the next couple of days. :) Pray it comes soon!! (Just not today!) Ha!
