Still Waiting...

Yep.....

I'm STILL pregnant!!

I have never carried a baby this long so I'm getting pretty anxious. I was hoping to have had it this past week, but I guess the little one has a mind of its own already. I went in for my routine check up on Wednesday hoping my Doctor would get me going, but instead she discovered that the little stinker in BREECH!! So I spent a few hours in the hospital that evening so they could turn the baby. Well some time after I left the hospital (I think it was around 3:00am) it flipped back. So now unless it turns on its own we have to wait til this coming Friday, the 29th, for them to flip the little fart again and induce labor.

I personally have mixed emotions...I am SOOOO ready to be done, but I also feel that there is a reason this little one isn't ready to be here. I am praying that it will turn and stay down so I don't have to have a C-Section.

So...until it finally makes its debut I will TRY to be patient and enjoy the last week of this pregnancy!!

Nothing seems worse than that last week of pregnancy, especially when you are overdue. Hopefully everything works out well for you and that little acrobatic newcomer. The extra wait will be worth it!

I can't believe you don't know if your baby is going to be a girl or a boy. Maybe someday I will have the will power to have it be a surprise, too.

It's probably a girl. That's my guess--it's got to be a girl. Strong willed, slightly stubborn, and a mind of her own. You're in for one. : ) J/K I hope she's exactly like you--sweet, lovable, and talented!!!!

I've actually been thinking about you lately and wondering how your pregnancy is going. You haven't really said for the last while. Keep your chin up. I can't wait to see pics of this sweet thang!
