Well, today was my last 'official' trip to the doctor and unfortunately there isn't a lot of news to share. I have been effaced for going on several weeks now with the baby's head engaged (in 'position') - my doctor said today she things I am about 80-90% effaced (thinned out). However, the same story I have been hearing for weeks is I am still not even the tiniest bit dilated. How disappointing! This baby has decided she does not want to come out!!
So I had to make a tough decision today - to induce or not to induce. I wanted to be 100% natural about how things went but I am to the 'I don't want to be pregnant anymore' phase so we (Logan, myself, and the Dr.) decided that if I haven't gone into labor by next Wednesday (the 13th) I was going to be induced. Not exactly the plan I was hoping for but I still have plenty of time to go into labor naturally. Personally, I really don't want a 10 pound baby and at this point she is just hanging out in there getting bigger (and bigger, and bigger!). I was a little anxious about all of this but like I said before, I still have about a week to get the ball rolling. My 'official' due date is tomorrow, Logan's grandmother's birthday is Saturday, and his sister Kelsey's birthday is Sunday! We'll see if we hit one of those dates!!
Send me dilating thoughts! And soon!!
