Waiting...

I am officially full-term now and just waiting on this little girl to decide she wants to come out:) I'll be induced on or around May 1 if she doesn't come on her own sooner. My blood pressure has been high for the last week, so we are monitoring it closely and hoping it doesn't turn into preeclampsia like it did with Will. I am on modified bed rest, but thankfully it hasn't been that bad because Matt has been able to help out a ton and on Tuesday my mom came in town! I am SO thankful for that! She has been a huge help.


As of today's ultrasound she weighs 8 pounds 11 ounces! I know they can be off by up to 2 pounds, so we'll see how big she ends up being! I would love to avoid an induction or c-section so I am following some old wives tales to naturally induce labor but so far nothing has worked! It is hard to just be patient:)

So exciting! But also hard to wait :-/ I got some pretty interesting suggestions for getting labor started. One co-worked told me that I should ride a bicycle over a bumpy road, or over metal gratings in the street. Needless to say, I did not take her up on that suggestion!
