Kim,

I am keeping my fingers crossed Christian makes his grand entrance before Tuesday. But if not, at least the waiting and suspense will be over.

Kim, my sister had to be induced with her first baby. She was two weeks late. She said that was actually her best delievery. I'm sorry to hear that you had to visit the dentist, but at least they got the pregnancy tumor taken care of. Good luck and best wishes to you in case something does come up before next Tuesday and I don't get a chance to tell you!

I said I don't think dilation is supposed to go backwards, so he said I am 1-2, I am saying 2 so that I feel better - LOL!We set up with the hospital for being induced on Tuesday, 8/21 if Christian does not arrive on his own before then. I will go in Tuesday at 7 am to get Pitocin. It was not the route I was hoping to take, but if he does not come, then I have to.

It figures I would get that at the same time as labor could begin. I have a cavity, and I had a pregnancy tumor on my gum, so they removed the tumor, and I will have to wait a couple of weeks after he arrives to go back and get the cavity filled. I can not absolutely stand the dentist, so it was not fun! I am such a baby!I have a lot of posts to catch up on, will be doing that shortly!I don't know how all you women who already have children did it, the wait is terrible, every second wondering if this is it or not.

Kim,

I hope that Christian will make his appearance before next Tuesday. But if not at least you know when and where. I'll keep praying he won't make you wait. Hang in there sweetie, you are definitely in the home stretch.

Love & hugs,

Kim:

I am sorry dear that you haven't went yet and that

your doc is talking Pitocin. It will all be over soon so

hang in there. I am glad that everything checked out ok

and that your b/p went down. August is a good month for

having babies. Our son Landon will be 8 on Monday August

20th.It is very hard to wait on having the baby but it

is worth every bit of it when it's all said and done! I

know what you mean about the dentist!! I hate to go to.

I hope your toothache holds off a little longer.

Toothaches are very painful!! Especially when you have

to put it off awhile.Well dear take care and good luck!!

Your little man will be here before you can even blink

your eye!! Hugs, Dana R.

Thanks, we are hoping he comes on his own also. Daddy and him had a

talk last night, and he tried to convince him it was better out here,

let's see if it works! I said all along that he was probably going to

come on my birthday, which is this Saturday, the 18th. It will be the

best birthday present ever, but not so good to be in labor on that

day!

I am ok with whenever, as I know it will be soon.

How exciting that you are feeling your little one kick, and from the

outside to, that means dh can also. Christian would kick up a storm,

and then stop as soon as would put his hand there. Poor

would get upset, but I told him he was calming the baby down - trying

to make him feel better!

We are doing the same, but at least you know there is an end by

Tuesday. It seems strange to say, also a little scary, but we are

very ready to meet this little person!

How are you doing?

Jo-Ann,

Thanks, it is weird to be so close to the end. I keep telling my dh

that you pray the entire time you are pg to go to term, have a

healthy baby, and at the end he does not want to come out! So much

for all the worrying that I did. I hope he comes soon, things are

really cramped in there, and doctor estimates he is going to be big.

Hope not that big! It is like waiting to explode, any minute now we

could go!

Hope you summer has slowed down and you are getting to relax!

Dana,

I know what you mean about August, Saturday the 18th is my birthday,

so maybe he is waiting to arrive until then so we can share my day,

although I was hoping he would have his own day! We are so anxious,

and it is so nice to know the end is near, but now I am starting to

get a little nervous! My toothache is a lot better now, just sort of

sore where they removed the tumor on my gum. I am dreading going back

in Sept to get the cavity filled, yuck - I don't like the dentist!

I saw your post about going to the movies. You should try with

Madison, maybe go to a late movie when she will be sleepy and could

eat if she gets fussy. Dh and I go alot to the movies, and he is

already planning on takin the baby, we got a snugli carreir to take

him in. When we were there last weekend, we saw two small babies and

did not hear a peep out of them!
