Went to Ob today.

Baby finally moved to a favorable position. YAY!!!
All of my babes have been posterior, Brendan (my VBA2C) was the only one who managed to turn and that was well into active labor, so I'm very optimistic.

This baby is on Left Occciput Transverse - was previosly posterior. Supposedly it's an ideal starting position for labor!!

Actually, the baby flipped when I was in the waiting room I think!!!

I am now 4cm dilated and 50% effaced.

Membranes stripped, I immediately had 2 powerful contractions, but now they are back to Braxton Hicks, with a real one thrown in here and there.

I just updated my doula, so she advised me to get some rest today just in case things heat up tonight!!! I told her to do the same, lol.

Thanks for reading my update!!

Good luck to you Katie! Let us know when the baby gets here. I wish I were patient enough to be surprised...maybe if we have another one! I hope labor and delivery go smoothly for you!
