Anyway as far as the baby front goes.........I am pretty bummed today. I had my 37 week appointment today and I was ready for some good news. And that's not what I heard!
He checked me and I wasn't even dilated and she was really high. So after I got dressed he came back in and we made a plan. He felt really bad that he had promised me a New Years baby (which can still happen), and he knew I was really disappointed. So I go in next Wednesday at 3:10pm and regardless if I am dilated or not we will set a date to induce later that week. He said it won't take much to coax this kid out! I will be 38 and a half weeks next Wednesday and by Saturday I will be one day shy of 39. So they can legally induce. I like that better anyway. I have never been in labor at home which totally freaks me out. I would rather just stroll in and have it planned. That's how it was with Madison and Zachary.
So I have given up any hope of a New Years baby and have resigned to the fact that she will have to be forced out aka evicted! I don't think I have ever been so ready for a kid! The kids are chomping at the bit! Zachary more than Madison. Which is pretty cute. Madison is a little apprehensive about the whole thing. Stay posted and when I know you will know!
I just found this picture and it pretty much sums up how I feel!

:) Told ya you were getting your hopes up WAY too soon of having her so early! Good thing he's willing to induce at 39 weeks, or ya might've jinxed yourself into being PAST your due date!
Hang in there, your doing great!
Really your scared for at home labor?? I was planning on inducing with Mason but had hopes he would come before that day because I wanted to experience it natural! And the little bugger put me into labor the morning I was supposed to go in that night to be induced! I loved it,but I go fast so it was over pretty quick! I was gonna be induced due to pinched nerve tho too. Good luck with it and you'll do fine if u go without inducing!
