Well, it's one day after my due date and there's still no baby! I went to the doctor yesterday and nothing had changed....still not dilated and the baby is still kinda high so that's a bummer. They sent me for some testing to monitor the babies heart rate and monitor my contractions. Everything was good, I had a few braxton hicks contractions while i was there but of course they didn't produce anything. So it looks like unless I have her naturally before then, they will start some of the induction process on the night of the 31st and then really get things moving the morning of the 1st. So unless she decides to come out on her own she will be evicted on April 1st! The Doctor says she's going to be big....hopefully not too big to fit, but we'll see. I'm praying she decides to just come out on her own!!

Only 2 more days!!

It has been a very long time since I updated. I figured I would update to hopefully avoid pulling my hair out with anticipation! I only have 2 more days until my due date!! I can't believe it's already practically here...I honestly thought the day would ever come, it always just seemed so far away. As the due date grows closer and closer I get more and more frustrated with the fact that I am still not dilated at all!! I go to the doctor again on Wednesday...my due date... so hopefully I will atleast be dilated. They will talk about scheduling an induction at my appointment on Wednesday. I think the average amount of time they give you to go naturally after your due date is 10 days...

I really don't want to have to wait for 10 days after my due date to have this baby, I'm just not sure i can deal with that! I'm already an emotional wreck just having to wait until my due date!! I think I find myself in tears everyday b/c i'm just so ready to not be pregnant anymore. It's not that I don't like being pregnant...it's been an awesome experience, it's just that I am so ready to hold my little baby. Plus the insomnia and never ending pain of pregnancy is wearing on me! Oh and the fact that i'm the size of a house doesn't help things either. Anyway...I think I may have to beg the doctor to induce me sooner if i'm still not dilated on Wednesday!


Please pray that she comes naturally.....preferably tonight?!?!
