So, last night was pretty eventful. I finally got to sleep somewhere between 3:30am and 4:00am. The contractions I was feeling got a little bit better, and they occassionally woke me up till around 8am, then they just sort of stopped.
I went to my appointment, and my blood pressure was high again, I lost 5 pounds in the last week (neither of which the doctor was THAT concerned about), I was dilated to 1cm and he said he could feel the baby's head (and that he's pretty low). He also told me that he wanted to induce me the week of July 28, and that there was no need to wait until August. He told me that the baby could come at anytime.
So now I'm just sitting around waiting to give birth. I wish it would happen soon and just be over with. That way I don't have time to worry about it.
A funny story though...First he always feels around my abdomen for the baby, and this time he stated "That's quite a baby." Then he put his hand on a certain part of my stomach and said, "That's a big butt! As a matter of fact, we need to check and make sure it's not his head." He did a quick ultrasound, and his head was thankfully in the right place. So, he said, "Nope,it's just a big butt!" So, if there was any question, he is indeed my son. :)
Jennifer and I went out for lunch and had some terrible mexican food, then we got pedicures. Then she came back over and we watched a couple of hours of Baby Story on TV. We were both hoping I would go into some serious labor and get the show on the road, but no luck.
So, as it stands now, it looks like I'll schedule the induction on July 30. But I hope he comes before then. Tonight would be good. :)
