30 +4 here and have a bruised rib right where my bra hits it. Doc thinks I'm going to go between 35-37 weeks due to a huge fibroid. Thisus imy first and having a girl. Trying to stay calm and just roll with everything. Nervous especially since I was told to expect to start natural and go emergency c section.

I'm 37w today, been at 2cm for about 2 weeks now.  Dr did a membrane sweep & cervix stretch on Thurs., been having some contractions since then but nothing regular.  I go back on Monday to do it again & then again on Friday if no baby.  Haven't lost my plug yet either. Hoping something happens soon.  :)
