40 Weeks and +
Well, my due date came and went. And this week, I'm trying to talk her into NOT coming because my doctor is on vacation. I do have an induction day set for next week which is my 42nd week (most docs don't like you going past 42 weeks). It's just the waiting and waiting that kills me. All last week I was having what you call "false labor" which I think needs to be called "teasing labor". I'm not miserable, per se. I mean being this big and pregnant isn't exactly comfortable, but I'm tolerating it just fine, or I'm just used to it, and I can't remember what it's like to not be pregnant. Last week I had 2 things happen to me which are key indicators that labor will start shortly (again I'm sparing you the details). Everyone kept telling me, "Oh you will for sure go within 48 hours" HAHAHA [inset sarcastic laugh] 216 HOURS later she still has not come, apparently that is NOT a key indicator for me. More evidence to support the theory that anything is possible in pregnancy and nothing is ever "normal". So here is picture of me from today 40 weeks and +. (See my swollen feet and ankles?).
