Week 40+ update

Who would have thought I would still be pregnant?  Not me!  The latest I have been has been 3 days….today is 2 days past due.  So back to the midwife today for a post 40 week appointment!  Baby is still really high!  I had lost 1/2 lb since last week.  Now the testing begins.  Assuming I am still pregnant I will have to go in tomorrow and Monday to have biophyiscal testing and ultrasounds to see how baby is doing.  My midwife really doesn’t like people to go past 41 weeks so we need to start thinking about induction dates if we get to that point!  Agh! Anyone been induced?  How has that gone? Advice?

The emotional stress of it all is worse than the physical uncomfortableness.  I totally feel like a watched pot!  I love hate how everyone thinks I am in charge of this pregnancy and labor.  I can’t even count on 2 hands how many times I have heard that I should hurry things up etc….all from well meaning people who would never mean to say anything that would upset me.

My Facebook update today was: “We would like to introduce you to…”Sacha-is-still-pregnant-Thursday”. Hope it is a good day for you! (At least I still have a sense of humor, right?)”  

I will go back to my chiropractor/acupuncture person tomorrow morning in hopes that he can stir things up a bit!  Hoping that we will be holding a little baby in the very near future!
