Anniversary and the Babe

Sunday the 17th was our one year Anniversary, but we celebrated it on Saturday. We ran errands all day getting the last minute things we needed for the babe's room and we walked and walked like no one's biz. Since the baby was due on the 17th as well, we made sure that we had everything done before then. That night, we went out to dinner to Chili's and saw the movie Source Code. It was a really good night and we were just so anxious to see if anything with the baby was going to happen the next day. Especially since I had been feeling little contractions throughout the day. I woke up on Sunday morning and I realized that my mucus plug had come out (seriously so gross and is exactly what it sounds like). So I call my mom and tell her and she told me that after that happened to her, my brother was born within 24 hours. My sister in law told me the same thing happened to her, and my sister told me that her mother in law had both her children within 24 hours after that happened to her....so I was feeling really good at this point. After church, we walked like 2 miles and I started feeling little contractions, but nothing consistent and they didn't really hurt. Just felt like period cramps. I was getting so excited and thought tonight is going to be the night...Nope!

Monday morning I had another doctor's appt at 9am. She tells me that I'm about 2 cm dilated now that the progress is good. She strips my membranes AGAIN and I ask her if the baby doesn't come soon, can I be induced on friday since my mom will already be in town and my dad is coming up that weekend and the whole rest of my family is coming up on the 27th. She says no and that she will not induce until next tuesday the 26th! My mom came up yesterday and I was so happy to see her. She keeps telling me that my baby is going to come sometime this week and that I don't need to worry about it. Even though its quite possible she won't come until I'm induced, I still need those words of encouragement!!!

LONDYN YOU BETTER COME OUT SOON OR YOU'RE GOING TO GET A HUGE SPANKING!!!

  3. a theory: I agree Lo needs a swift kick for being fashionably late (kinda like you huh?) but, maybe she is nervous to find out what a spanking is and is staying in the womb to avoid it. Just a thought....
