Today's 38 week appointment
Well - still no change. I've been 1-2 cm dilated, effaced/favorable cervix) and with baby's head right there for now the 3rd week.
I had a really long talk with the doctor and since he delivered my daughter and I've pretty much seen him exclusively throughout this pregnancy I felt comfortable discussing some options with him.
What we decided was to let me go another week and schedule an induction for Monday. We both agreed that since my daughter was almost 9 pounds and that I'm already measuring 2 weeks ahead that we don't want the baby to get too big. I also have a history of quick labor so this cuts down on the "what if I have the baby in the car" fear (seriously, it happened to my mom).
So if I don't go this week I go to the hospital Monday morning at 7:30 and they'll give me the epidural, then break my water and give me some pitocin. The doctor thinks I'll have my son in my arms by 12:00 :)
I'm happy with the decision and can't believe that I'm seriously having another baby!!!!

Good for you! I may be induced that day, too! I will find out for sure friday.
Too bad we are not in the same hospital- that would have been fun!
