40 weeks and still no baby!!
So today I am 40 weeks and sorry....we missed taking the picture of me at 40 weeks...but don't worry..it wouldn't have been that pretty and I can tell you that my belly circumference was 42.5 inches. So we went to the doctor today and saw Dr Cho who, by the way, told us at an earlier appointment that she didn't think I would make it to the due date...I would go early. So I had to remind her of that comment at this appointment. In the appointment she told us that we had a couple options, wait it out or induce. Everything was favorable as I was about 3-4 cm dilated and 65% effaced so it was up to us. Of course, as we are already at 40 weeks and today was Friday and it was the afternoon, our first question was if we choose to induce, when would we do it? She responded that she was on call this weekend, had sent her kids away and that she was open for business if we wanted to do it tomorrow or Sunday. We just had to call the appointment desk who sets up the inductions with the hospital. So Jerad and I decided to go for the induction - we are hoping to get in this weekend! I was ready to call as soon as we hit the parking lot, but Jerad said that I could wait until we got home. I called the number she gave us and they had an opening tomorrow at 7:30AM, but would need to call the hospital at 6AM to make sure they didn't get a ton of women delivering on their own before we got there. Looks like I have a little more waiting to do before I know for sure if we will meet our little Zeus tomorrow.
