I've begun to start all my phone conversations with "No, I'm not in labor". Although, everyone is being really good about not calling me every 5 minutes and I appreciate that very much. Tomorrow is the big "due date"
Saw the doctor on Wednesday who confimed I'm still 3cm with some other signs that I'll go into labor "soon". We'll see about that! In the interest of my own sanity and Emily not having to share a birthday with baby Jesus, I went ahead and scheduled an induction for December 22nd. I debated letting my body do it's thing since 40 weeks is really not an expiration date. I realize it's not uncommon to go 41 or even 42 weeks. All things considered I feel it's the right decision for us. I worry constantly about her movement. I'm favorable for induction meaning my body is already showing signs, it just needs a little nudge in the right direction. We could also use the 2009 tax writeoff ;)

I hear ya, girl. Carter was a few days late and I was READY!!! Dr. Orth swears that scheduling the induction actually triggers something in your body, so you'll probably be in labor on your own before the 22nd. Good luck. Keep us posted. God bless all of you : )
Don't bake it too long, though. They end up hard if you bake them too long. Not nearly as edible.
