no it does not!!! i told him about the next appt and he was like that would suck to have that as a bday. it all depends on how far dialated i am and if i even make it until then. i'm starting to think that maybe i might have to dtd one more time... it got me effaced quite a bit, so maybe next time around it will start to dialate me?!?!? i guess there's a really bad flu outbreak around here right now, they told me that i can't have any kids under 18 visit me in the hospital 
so that means my kids can't even come see their little brother until we go home. i also can't more then 2 people in the room at a time during labor and afterwards too. it really sucks, she said it's a statewide ban. if i were you, i'd check to see if that's going on where you're at too. might spoil your plans too...
you would go early!! so not much change, still a fingertip dialated but i'm 70% effaced now!!! they said they would strip my membranes but i wasn't dialated enough, you have to be 2-3 centimeters.
