Everyone's waiting on me to have this baby already and I'm telling you--I'm trying! I thought for sure she would've come by now. I thought I wouldn't even have to go to my appt on monday morning. But I don't think she is head down or engaged anymore because I feel her whole body on the top of my belly now...she wants to stay! I wonder how much bigger she will get. The doctor will discuss induction on monday, which I would prefer not to do..I am kinda scared to induce because I feel like it will be worse for some reason. But it would be kinda cool to still have her on John and Lucas' birthday. We were hoping to have her new year's eve so that she would be a tax credit lol. I thought it was going to happen because it was a full moon and thats what brought Lucas to the world.
I have had some raspberry leaf tea (and it only made me nauseaus). I have been going up and down stairs with Lucas, and walking outside.I even had pineapple the other day. And John has helped with *other* more fun induction methods. But she is just too comfortable in there I guess! I am pretty impatient, but I will be happy whenever she comes, as long as I get an epidural this time.
If we have her today she will share Shawna's birthday, and John's nephew Osiris's. Nothing else between now and the 12th! Just wanted to let everyone know, nothing's happened yet. John has the weekend off so we will do a lot of walking. He's taking me to the mall today since it's so cold outside. Will definitely post a blog before I set off for the hospital so keep checking!

Thanks for keeping us posted. Don't stress about it, if you are. Remember, it's easier that she is being automatically taken care of in your belly right now. Enjoy that. Soon, you will have your hands full with TWO to feed, change, rock etc....Right now, it's only Lucas, who is more independent!
I know, but we still are anxious to see her! Plus, my body is just too big to be comfortable anymore. I accidentally opened the door into my belly today and it hurt ! We just got back from the mall and dinner and I have been having contractions so we'll see. I don't want to get anyone's (most importantly my) hopes up lol. I am going to go spend some time with lucas just in case i have to leave him soon :)
