Baby Update

It seems like our life right now is just waiting for the new baby. Coleton and i spend most of our day cleaning, organizing, setting up baby items and folding baby clothes in hopes of an early arrival. For the past three weeks i have been going to appointments every week and am being checked for any progress at 36 weeks, while they were doing the strep test found that i was dialated to a 3 and the baby was head down and low. When i went in last week at 37 weeks, i was dialated to 3.5 60% effaced and still baby was very low. Yesterday i went in for another appointment, 38 weeks and they stripped my membranes, stating that i was a perfect canidate for it to send me in to labor and after the doctor was done said that he would not be shocked if i was in the hospital that night. Well today i am home, not in labor, and a little disappointed that i am not having any contractions or anything for that matter. The doctor said that he would schedule an induction for February 9th so i am waiting to hear back from the hospital to make the induction secure. I am just getting so excited for this little boy to come and i sure hope it is soon so i dont go nuts.. Here is an updated picture, i am 38 weeks in the photo and feel ready to pop!!

Those last few weeks of waiting can be killer- especially when you think that the baby will come any day and it doesn't! At least you can count down to the induction now so there is an end is sight (or a beginning :)). We can't wait to see him. Good luck with the delivery.
