Another quick update:
There hasn't been anything new to report in the last few days, so I went to my doctors appointment thinking I would probably be about the same "progress" wise as when I left the hospital on Saturday morning. Well....she checked me and she told me I am 70% (I was 80% at the hospital - but it must be a difference on who checks you) - and 6-7cm dilated! She was ready to send me to the hospital right then if I wanted to, but after talking about it we decided on waiting a day or so - to see if she will come on her own.
The doctor doesn't seem to think I will make it till Saturday morning - but if I do - I will go in on Saturday morning to have my water broken and hopefully get this show on the road. She (and I) am a bit concerned about how fast this might happen - so she told me if she was going to let me go home tonight, it was with the understanding that if ANYTHING changes or I feel anything different - I am to go straight to the hospital.
No one wants a baby to come on the interstate (including me!)
The baby is still fairly "high" and still has a bit to drop and she said that sometimes bigger babies have a harder time coming down, so I'm hoping by waiting a few days maybe she will come down on her own.
So, please keep us in your prayers over the next few days and pray for a "not too quick" delivery! :)
On another note, my sister-in-law who is due two days before me - is going to be induced on Tuesday of next week, if she doesn't go before then. We can't wait to meet both of these babies! It seems as if the moment our baby girl is leaving the nursery their baby boy will be entering. The nursery is going to be invaded by the Rapps - I hope they are ready!
