Just a quick update:
I paid the doctor a visit yesterday and unfortunately there has been no change. I am due next wednesday and there is still no dialation or effacement. It's really discouraging. Here I am a week from my due date and I feel now, more than ever, hopeless. I would feel so much better if my body showed just the smallest sign that something was happening...that my body was at least working towards something....but nothing. I know they say things can change so fast and one minute you can have no labor symptoms and the next you can be in active labor, but its just hard to think positively about it right now. My entire pregnancy I was so worried about him coming early....never dreaming that he more than likely will be overdue. Since there has been no change and no sign that I will be going into active labor anytime soon, I have been scheduled for an overnight induction starting the night of the 20th and then delivering the 21st. So the doctor is giving me a week past my due date to see if I will go into labor naturally, but she won't allow me to go past a week...thank goodness. So after nine months of looking forward and waiting for August 13th, now I have to wait for another week. IT'S HORRIBLE! Please pray that I will go into labor naturally closer to my due date than the 20th. I just don't know how I am going to make it another two weeks. For any of you that are currently expecting or have had babies you know how hard it is to have patience to just make it to your due date, let alone be told more than likely you will deliver a week late. I am just ready to have my baby boy here and I'm tired of waiting.
