Update

No baby yet. Things are progressing and let's just say I am getting to where I need to be without really going through labor. It is frustrating but I don't have much choice. I slept good last night so that is a positive. Which reminded me of a good exercise: pros and cons

Pros that I haven't had the baby yet:
  • I keep losing weight every time I go to the doctor...even though I have been eating TERRIBLE!!
  • I haven't had any hard contractions and I am 4 cm dilated (that is starting to change today...like right now)...
  • I have read a lot
  • I have finally won at solitaire (not regular solitaire a really hard one)
  • I have finished logic puzzles, telling me I haven't lost my mind
  • I have caught up on Dallas (can you catch up on a TV show that ended 20+ years ago)??
  • I have humored my husband by watching Smallville at 3:00 in the a.m.
  • I cleaned out the dvr recordings
  • I bummed around the mall making people feel bad for me when they asked my due date and I said "Yesterday"
  • The new house has allowed me to lay around in a variety of different locations so I don't have to look at the same thing
  • I got to put a post up
  • I cleaned out Hunter's closet...realizing that he is growing way too fast (I think we may bypass 3T)
Cons that I haven't had the baby yet:
  • I HAVEN'T HAD THE BABY YET!!!!!
  • Not really knowing when labor will start and how fast it will go
  • My doctor is now out of town and one of his replacements looks like Gary Bussie (sp?) - I'm sure he is a great doctor but Gary Bussie (he did Hunter's circ.)
  • I haven't really done the things around the house that I should...finish the laundry, baby books (yes books, Hunter's really needs work too), pictures of the nursery

Well hopefully this is the last post I have before the baby...but one will never know!

4CM? You're lucky!!! It took me forever to get to 4CM, even after the cervidil and pitocin!!

Good luck!
