The latest.



I doubt any of you are counting down the days as we are but just in case we are more interesting than I suspect, here's an update. No baby but I'm scheduled to go be induced on the 14th. I'm still trying to wrap my head around the idea of having a baby on the due date! Crew was 9 days late so I have been spending the last 9 months convincing my self that I'll be late. They have to start me on antibiotics for this labor and because Crew's labor was so short they want to induce me to make sure the antibiotics are in my system before the baby comes.

At my last appointment (yesterday) I was dilated to a 3. My next appointment is next tuesday (11th) and there is a chance that if I'm dilated to a 4 or more on tuesday that they may induce me sooner than friday. We'll see. I'm ready ready and excited! I can't wait to say goodbye to my belly and hello to my baby!

I actually AM counting the days with you! Your belly is like an optical illusion - invisible from the front, but JUST SO BIG from the side! How do you DO that? That's great news on the dilation front, already 1/3 of the way there! Maybe climb some more Bishop's castles, you'll be ready to push by the time you get back down those stairs :)

Look how cute. Not to discourage you but I was dilated to a 3 for a month before Reese decided to come, so hopefully yours will be a lot quicker. Let us know when she comes. I think about you just about everyday wondering if you have had her yet. Good Luck!
