I'm at home, stuffing my face with a double cheeseburger from Wendy's, after going to the doctor's appointment I nearly forgot about. I even think I just blogged about it in my previous post.
Why am I posting again?
Well, I got a bit of good news from the doctor today:
I've lost 3 pounds! Yay! This COULD mean labor is imminent...or it could mean nothing. Either way, it's 3 pounds I don't have to lose later.
Baby is doing well...still head down...145 heart rate...but she hasn't dropped a bit...still kickboxing away in there.
I'm STILL 2cm and 50%.
I swear, I'm never going to freaking go in labor, despite the insane twinges I've felt in my pelvis and inner thigh. I really thought I had made some progress...the only thing happening is I continue to lose my mucus plug.
Oh gee.
My doc said IF I make it to next week's appointment (she says this every week these days...gets my hopes up, only to dash them the following week), and IF I want to, she'll schedule my induction. She said I can wait until 42 weeks if I want, but she won't let it go longer than that.
I totally respect that...I hope I go in labor on my own. I really don't want pitocin.
