Baby Update

Yesterday afternoon Chris and I went to what we were hoping would be our last doctor's appointment. HA! The dr. checked me and it looks like Preslie is not going to come out on her own. I REALLY don't want to be induced, I really wanted her to come out on her own. Honestly who knows when that will be.

My cervix is closed, she has not dropped, and strangely enough she is pretty comfortable and content in there.

Monday we go in for a 30 minute non-stress test to see if Preslie is doing okay in there. Then we go in again on Thursday for another non-stress test and an ultrasound. Then I will be induced next weekend if Preslie passes all her tests. If not I could be induced next week. I was really sad after my appointment yesterday, but our doctor reassured us that I would not go past the 25th.

My parents are flying out next Thursday so it will be fun to spend some non laboring time with them. :) I can make it another week...I think.

sorry this is taking forever! I was induced with 2 of my kids, Parker because they were concerned he was too big, so they took him 2 weeks early, and then with Tiyana because I was done done done! I had been dilated for over 3 weeks and was a week off of my due date and just said do it! good luck. I love reading your updates. =)
