Stubborn Child!

This baby is so not wanting to ever come out. Haha. I just got back from the dr. and there was no change from last week (2 cm and barely effaced) and the baby was so high he couldn't even try to strip my membranes. Every other pregnancy I was at least 3.5- 4 cm at 38.5 weeks. Even with my first! Silly complacent child.
The dr. did say though that I could get the epidural the second I walk into the hospital for my induction even if I'm still just a 2. So I guess that was one bit of good news. Oh and that his guess is that the baby will be about 7 lbs 7 ounces give or take an ounce or two, by next wednesday. So not too big at all! So yeah-6 days left. And we will most definitely make it all 6 days, lol. That's good though because my parents and lil sis want to come up and be in the waiting room when this child finally pops out and at this rate they will be able to do that. So there ya go- the (slightly disappointing) weekly update.

Hang in there! And I highly recommend the epidural as soon as you walk in. I always thought epidurals really hurt but it turns out they only hurt really bad when you are having awful pitossin contractions.
