Well, I went to see my doctors nurse today because the doctor was on-call and busy delivering other babies (not ours). The nurse said that I am dilated to 3cm and 70% effaced. She asked if I wanted to be induced and I seriously was having the hardest time making a decision. The best pro would be that my doctor would be there to deliver Baby Green, but then I felt like I was changing what Baby Green has in mind for a birth - day. Regardless the doctor said that she would not let me go any longer than 1 week overdue. After toying with the decision, I have decided to wait and see what Baby Green decides. This does add some stress to me because I am already paranoid that she/he isn't 100% perfect. Baker had breathing problems when he was born because the cord was wrapped around his neck. He had to stay in the nursery for the 2 days hooked up to tubes, etc. It scared us so much, but he is & has been 100% perfection. Baby Green is moving around, so I think he/she is just getting snuggled in. Hopefully Baby Green will decide to make an appearance very soon so Mom's mind can be put at ease, Dad can finally sleep thru the night (without all the bathroom breaks) and Baker will have his firetruck!
Thank you to everyone for your thoughts and prayers. We really look forward to meeting you Baby Green!!!
