Hurry Up and Wait...

The last month of pregnancy has been the slowest month of my entire life. I am so anxious and excited to meet my little man that every day I don't go into labor feels like a huge disappointment. Since my 36 week check up with my doctor, she has been telling me it could be any day now...well any day now has turned into a month of pins and needles. I cant call anyone without them getting excited that I may be in labor. Which makes me feel like I am disappointing everyone around me. I am uncomfortable and just down right ready to not be pregnant any more! I have Googled every old wives tale about how to induce labor, and have tried just about all of them, but here I am still pregnant :). I am just so ready to hold this little baby in my arms that I could burst!

Today at my doctors appointment, Dr. Schroeder stripped my membranes. I have been having contractions all afternoon, but nothing painful so I don't feel that its time for me to head to the hospital just yet. If this doesn't work, we are heading to the hospital tomorrow to be induced. One way or another I am going to get to meet my little guy tomorrow!! As for today, I am going to scrub my house from top to bottom and celebrate my wonderful cousin and best friend Haley's birthday. If that doesn't distract me I don't know what will!
