The Waiting Game

As you've probably discerned from my Twitter updates, yesterday's OBGYN appointment yielded no new results. I'm still only 1 centimeter dilated. Though the doctor could feel Anya's head which is actually kind of a weird thing to think about. Heh. But at least she is definitely head down and dropped low enough to do this thing once my body starts cooperating by having contractions and dilating enough to be considered in active labor.

Right now I'm just passing the time with some Sims 2 and hoping something still happens today. I've just had a feeling about this date for most of my pregnancy. It would suck to be wrong at this point. But today isn't over yet so there is still time. It's all up to Anya. The rest of us just have to wait it out. I just want her to be here so I can stop stressing about the possibility of having to be induced if she is overdue. My doctors won't let me go more than 41 weeks so if Anya isn't here by next Friday they will schedule an induction for before the 14th. I'd rather not go that route, though. I'm ready to get this show on the road! And then I'll have to start worrying about fat burners and watching what I eat again so that I do not become a permanent lard from all of the pregnancy weight. But that's okay with me. I'm beyond ready to do this thing.

I can't believe it's just about time... Wow.

And to keep babies on my mind, my sister announced this morning on the way to Fiesta that she is pregnant and expecting in May. We're ridiculously happy. It definitely makes what you're going through seem a bit more real to me now.
