Private

Hello readers (the few that you are). I know it's been over 2 months since I've posted. I've decided to go private with the blog so that I'll feel more comfortable posting about Pippa. Please comment with your email so that you'll be able to continue to read. I'll moderate the comments so everyone can't see your email address. Thanks!

41 Weeks and 3 Days

Today I reached "that point." I went back to the dr. today and I'm still pregnant. They did an ultrasound and a non-stress test and everything is fine with the baby. The Dr. asked if I had felt the contractions that recorded on the NST, and I said yes, but I've been feeling them for weeks. They estimated that she weighs about 8 lbs 3 ozs right now, give or take a little. I'm still at about 3 cms dilated but I'm now about 90% effaced, so that's some progress. So no baby just yet, but if she's not here by Thursday morning at 6:30, they're going to induce. Thank God! Originally, I had not wanted to be induced at all, but there comes a time when it's ok to change your plans. That's what I mean by "that point." I'm not sure I could wait much longer than that, and Saturday would be a whole 2 weeks overdue. There is no longer any comfortable position at all, and I'm just ready.
