Baby Loves Me!

Well, the diagnosis from the doctor yesterday is that the baby must love me... because he appears to have no interest in leaving the womb. Yes, that means that I have not progressed at all since the last visit. It's very strange to me how I can not seem to make up my mind about how I feel about things - part of me is disappointed for obvious reasons. Part of me however is relieved - am I really ready?

Regardless, I went on an extra long walk last night. Figured that if he wants to enter the world soon, I've got to give him some help right? After all, that's what mamas do for their little boys...

Remember that "progress" means nothing in baby land. You could be zero and go into labor tonight! Maybe he'll be like Eli and decide to be a week late. That would mean another 2 weeks for you!

Sounds like he is on his own schedule! It was so fun hanging out with you and Woody last night. Brought back really good memories of late night talks in the dining hall.

Woody,
Try to make an appearance before I leave on vacation for a week. I don't want to miss your first few days! :)

I walked and walked and we didn't progress. But, as "amosclarkson" said, you never know. Things can go from 0 to 10 in no time. In the meantime, enjoy time with your hubby, try to get as much rest as possible, and read a novel (you won't get a chance to do that again for a long, long time.)

He'll come when he chooses (or they break your water!), so you know me....my advice would be to sleep as much as possible...you won't see much for many, many, MANY moons!!! ZZZZzzzzzz hang in there!

and no, you're not ready. nobody ever is. but you'll do great!
