Got my baby arrived button

I woke up to find I got my baby arrived button.  36 weeks today.  My doctor agreed to sweep my membrane at my next appointment if I don't have the baby before then. He also told me that of all the home remedies for self inducing don't work.  The only one scientifically proven is sex.  Thought I'd pass that along.  
I am officially 2 weeks past the point I was when I had my first son.

The baby arrived button you get on the home screen of the pregnancy app.  I got mine at 34 weeks.  
A membrane sweep is something your doctor can do to help move things along with labor.  He said it really only helps if you're close.  The membrane is also known as the mucus plug, and some women call it a bloody show since sometimes there can be a little blood in it.  Usually this happens at the end of pregnancy, but not everyone loses theirs or notices it.

Thanks.  Um hoping to go a little early.  Next week is 37 weeks which would be perfect since my son will be on spring break and my parents wouldn't need to worry about getting him to and from school.
