39 weeks

This week has been somewhat of a roller coaster. I had a few quiet days of no progress while other days seemed like they were going to be 'the day'. I found out on Wednesday that I have not dilated any more (I'm still at a 2) and that my doctor prefers not to induce. The good news is that this morning my body was showing signs that I may go into labor within a few days. For now I'm trying to keep myself busy and focus on other things although it is very hard to ignore a 7 lb + baby moving around not to mention all the aches and pains.

There have been a few blessings to come from the waiting. We've had a lot of one on one family time with Jeffrey. He likes to play board/card games so needless to say our investment in the Game of Life has been a good one. It's amazing how the little things like picking him up from school everyday really mean a lot to both of us. I've also gotten plenty of rest and completed some small projects around the house that I never got around to before.

So for now we are still waiting.....
