The Foley Balloon

Today I had my doctor appointment where he checked me! I was dilated to a 3! They decided to put a balloon in me to help dilate me and maybe put me into labor. The balloon definitely felt awkward. I came home and went for a walk to the park with my sister and Dacen. Later Steve and I took Dacen to dinner. Before we left for dinner I couldn't tell if my water broke or I just had to pee really bad or if the balloon leaked. So we decided since we were eating by the hospital we would go by and have them check things out! The balloon had ended up falling out of my cervix and I was dilated to a 4. But I was not having consistent contractions so they decided not to keep me. So we are home now! We will see what happens! No baby tonight maybe it will be tomorrow! :) Here is a pic of what the balloon looked like in case you were curious! I was very happy they were able to remove it tonight since it was no longer in my cervix.
